Ronaldo Says He Misses Manchester United (From Last Year)

October 10, 2010 By red devil

Cristiano Ronaldo may have had a bit of a troubled relationship with Sir Alex Ferguson by the end of his last season for Manchester United because of his very vocal desire to leave the team but now that he is with Real Madrid, the Portuguese winger has come out to say that he misses being with the Red Devils.

Ronaldo was transferred to Real after an unprecedented £80million fee this summer. But even though he misses life at Old Trafford he still maintains that he made the right choice in going to Real Madrid.

Ronaldo has also dismissed comments that Manchester United has been struggling without him this season. He said that even though the team has lost the last two games they are still the second placers in the league.

I think that it’s very sportsmanly of Ronaldo to say such things about his old club. We’ve often seen players who transfer to a new team lambasting his former teammates and the manager just to justify why they had to transfer in the first place. Ronaldo has proven that you can transfer without having to show any kind of animosity to your former teammates. Yes, he may be seen as a little bit of a brat by most fans but he’s shown that he can also be a stand-up guy.

What’s up with Veloso and the Diva hits out at EPL

July 7, 2009 By Franky

Miguel VelosoFor a long time we have been rumoured to be interested in Miguel Veloso, a 23 year old Portuguese defensive midfielder. Veloso and his club Sporting always maintained that wanted to stay in Lisbon but things have gotten quiet around him.
Veloso was rumoured to be a +£20m target for us.

Anderson hasn’t been too terrific last season, potential is there but often his performance was below par and the question is if Owen Hargreaves will return and reach his peak again. Veloso would be a great reinforcement for the midfield and take work load away from Michael Carrick. And we have seen in the past that ManUtd CAN play with two defensive midfielders. Anderson and Hargreaves have regularly played together and immobilized the Liverpool and Arsenal midfield. Do we need Veloso? Has it become quiet around him because SAF is masterminding another coup?

antonio-valencia

It didn’t take long to finalize the capture of the 23 year old Antonio Valencia. The Ecuadorian has signed at Old Trafford. No transfer fee has been disclosed, but Wigan is said to have captured £18m for the international who pledge his trade two years in the shadow of the Theatre of Dreams.
There is no doubt that Valencia will fit our game the only question is will he be a fixture in the starting 11 from Day 1. He is raving to play in the squad though:

Hi5’s to United..

November 17, 2008 By Redhead

Missing my past reviews(pending work),i couldn’t stop myself of writing this one.Losing to Arsenal last week this was quite a fustration that was taken out by our team.This match was by far the best that United played this month.5 goals banged and a beauties by newbies.What else do u want.

The dominance and experienced United were already up within minutes of the game.Ronaldo’s early zig-zag free-kick took United ahead  in 4 minutes.The veteran Sorenson was left as a mere spectator which he only managed to caress the ball with his finger tips.Ronaldo reaching is 100th goal and a beauty goal to accomplish that.Second late in at the end of first half with the bigfoot Carrick pounding over Stoke with his left foot.United 2 goals ahead and a break for Orange.I won’t be ellobarating more on how the goals are scored as i assume the game’s been watched by all of u.Well The second half was no different. Stoke  got 3 more bangings one each from Ronaldo,Berba and Welbeck sealed United’s win.
Now with the players.
The team was perfect by far for United.No Rooney and no Ferdinand but still it was best at the moment.
Park and Ronaldo both playing hell of a time at flanks.Though Ronaldo was being clumsy and losing ball at times he balanced it with is low-cut passes and delicate flicks.
Park this season is one of the players who has aced in improvements.He still needs consistent plays to retain is form time to time.
Fletcher and Carrick were more than brilliant yesterday.Maturity with Fletcher as a mid-field was seen in this game.He was moving more like Scholes in his young days.this made more room for Carrick to leap ahead.The combination of Fletcher-Carrick is best at the moment.
The defense was commanding.Even without Ferdinand things never looked uneasy.Evans was playing confident as always and the remaining three got nothing wrong.

Evans and Welbeck both were fantasic and bright future stars of United.Recommended that they should atleast be given a time of 5 years to reach their top form.Like with Rooney when Fergie spoted him Moyes failed to do so.

The day was perfect for United but still we need 3-4 games to boost our selves to top.
United are 8 points behind Liverpool and many shitty games coming along.The real test of Fergie will now start with rotating players when team is at improving at each level.
