What other possible reason would there be to not sign Ronaldo ? We'd challenge for everything & the club's profile would go through the roof; all of their objectives. FFP ? Don't make me laugh, they could arrange an extra sponsorship to pay for him purely on the strength of him signing. If Real want Tevez, it knocks a fair bit off the price anyway.
If Ronaldo wants to stay at Real, then this is total bullshit & he stays. If it's true he wants to leave however, we will be trying to sign him, without a shadow of a doubt.
As much as I don't want Tranaldo or any other ex-rag, I fully agree with all of that. Besides, they already tested the water with Tevez and that went down well with majority of supporters.
Tranaldo, alongside Messi and Beckscum of yesteryear, are financially different kettle of fish to just about anyone else in football world. It's not just "we throw 100 million at them" or whatever. They bring back majority of that money through marketing, short sales and shit. They are the kind of players who have fans of their own who spend millions on merchandise and follow them where ever they go. Do I think it's right? FUCK NO. But that's the way it is from marketing point of view.
Also, you can not argue with Tranaldo's laughable video game numbers. Same as Messi. They are just different level to anyone else this time and age and even I, bitterest of bitters, can't argue with that.
