Yea by law he should have walked but then again united should have had a penalty, so its all equalized in the end.

Nani aka reject from jackson 5, is nowhere near as good as ronaldo was when he started out at manchester.
His over-rated and has shown with the amount of games his played this season that he cant do anything with the ball.
Again, last years stats.

Year : 2008
Games : 26
Goals : 3
Penalties : 0
Yellow Cards : 2
Red Cards : 1
Minutes Played : 1565

The only thing the guy is good at is picking up cards.The guy at 21 has not won one pro award so far, shows that fifa or any other organization dont think his any good.

lol coming from someone who only watches one team and hasnt watched football for more than couple of season.

Then wtf is he doing on the pitch, if his assists,goals etc are crap in the stats?
 
Yup it is rather sad, but aggg the thing is just his comments are pointless and aimed at getting a response :).

He can talk all he wants now. It's been decided we don't care so its all good :p, Sad thing is he keep coming back and chatting to us, lonely it must be when the La Liga thread is totally dead.

We accept lonely people with open arms supa :). although in your case we don't care what you have to say in this thread :p
 
Fergie refuses to rule out shock Henry move

Sir Alex Ferguson still intends to buy a new striker this week - and has failed to rule out a shock move for Thierry Henry.

With Louis Saha written out of his plans and Wayne Rooney only just returned to training after picking up a virus in Nigeria, the Manchester United boss had only Carlos Tevez to call on for this afternoon's Community Shield win over Portsmouth at Wembley.

Tevez responded with a man-of-the-match display containing everything but a goal as United triumphed in a penalty shoot-out.

But Ferguson admits getting a forward in time for Sunday's Barclays Premier League opener with Newcastle is now a pressing concern.

'It has been pressing since the end of last season,' said the Scot.

'We like to operate with four strikers and we have not been able to do that.'

There is bound to be fresh speculation over a move for Tottenham's Dimitar Berbatov, while Karim Benzema, David Villa and Klaas-Jan Huntelaar have also been linked with Old Trafford over the last few months.

Henry's name has just been added to that list despite the 31-year-old's obvious link with Arsenal.

Tellingly, it was an issue Ferguson chose to skirt round rather than reject.

'There is a name every day,' he said.

'I can't answer the question because I don't have the right answer.

'It is possible I will sign someone this week. We are trying and we are looking at one or two options.

'Hopefully we will get something done.'

I noticed that football365.com has basically the same news as ESPN, so their site is genuine.

Fergie - Real made one Ron bid

United boss reveals official approach from Spanish giants

Sir Alex Ferguson has revealed that Real Madrid did make one official bid for Cristiano Ronaldo this summer.

The future of the Manchester United star has dominated the headlines since the end of last season, but he has finally pledged to remain at Old Trafford for at least one more campaign.

Real made no secret of their desire to bring the Portugal international to Spain with a series of public statements from various members of the club's hierarchy, but never confirmed a bid had been lodged.

The Red Devils have always steadfastly refused to budge from their long-held position that Ronaldo is not for sale and would be remaining in the Barclays Premier League.

United boss Ferguson insists the decision that their star man would not be leaving was taken at the start of the whole saga, and admitted that Real have made no attempts to make peace following the long-running battle for Ronaldo's services.

Nonsense
Ferguson said: "We haven't had any recent contact with Real Madrid. Has there been any attempt to heal the rift? Yeah, that will be right!

"They put a bid in. I don't know if it was fax or letter or whatever. Just one. It was sometime in the summer.

"But the final decision was taken at the end of the season when the first nonsense appeared and Cristiano referred to his future being decided in the next few days.

"It was decided there and then he was staying. There was never any change in our stance."


Great club
The Scot is happy for the matter to have been resolved, and feels Ronaldo could well stay longer than the single season he has pledged.

He added: "I think we will just let the thing settle down now. It will take its course.

"The whole business will settle down, he will realise he is at a great club. It will sort itself out, his future will sort itself out."
