    Good point the special one admitted he insisted on at least 6 behind the ball and double mark the wings.

    Ronaldo has a weakness that Milan exposed, he doesn't pass.

    Scholes and Rooney had great games, Chelsea's man of the match was the goalkeeper, that in a match with so little chances.

    Funny, I've never heard anyone in England say that. But then I only live here.

    heyhey angry boy sure if he has the ball and gives it away sure he's done somrthing with it
    For someone who isn't brainwashed this sounds an awful lot like what Dunphy and co sprout every time Ronaldo plays... Are you sure you're not brainwashed? Or are you just easily lead? 😞😞😞

    Ronaldo is no Maradonna and never will be, but he's made amazing progress and if if does continue to improve he will end up being a leading player in Europe.[/b]
    he's a good player with potential but isn't effective in the big games
    so he will never be a leading player in europe, he however will be a top player at breaking down weaker defenses and so will be ideal for winning leagues where stubborn defenses can often be next to impossible to break down esppecially when the big boys are in town

    Well, if he's only going to be good for winning league titles we may as well get rid of him. 😞😞😞 😴

    😀

    Ronaldo is a great player and even if he sometimes under-performs in the important matches, he's just 22, so he has a lot to learn.

    How many 22-year-olds were the main figure in a club like Manchester United? He's not half-way there yet, but he can become a true great.

    I thought the English hated Christiano Ronaldo for his whining and diving against England (and ohters) during the World Cup? What happened? I guess it's a bit of "What have you done for me lately" syndrome...

    Actually they hated him because he made a 'give that guy a card' gesture when Rooney stamped Ricardo Carvalho's balls.

    Go figure, to demand a card in such a situation. They should have hung him in the nearest square. 😵
