A Giggle From The Sun

This newspaper makes me laugh. Although I'm sure he does watch the matches, he would never give an interview to them.



Ronaldo: I still love Man Utd
Published: 25 Sep 2009

CRISTIANO RONALDO has revealed he still loves Manchester United — and watches them on TV whenever he can.
The Portuguese winger moved from Old Trafford to Real Madrid this summer in an world record £80million deal.
But despite that switch fulfilling a boyhood dream, Ronaldo still harbours affection for his old club.
He said: ""Every time I can, I try to watch United's games on television.
"I still like to know what's happening at Old Trafford. And despite now being at Real, I'm always happy when I know when United have won."
Ronaldo has wasted no time getting into the groove with his new team, becoming the first Real Madrid player to score in his first four league games for the club.
But while his skills may no longer be on show in the Premier League, the 24-year-old believes one man can step up to replace him.
He added: "I've also seen that Nani is playing much more than he was last season when I was there. That's good for him and he will benefit from that.
"Now he has more opportunities to play, he will be able to show the fans just how great a player he is.
"We still speak regularly on the phone. And it's good to see United's fans are starting to appreciate him more and have been happy with his form up until now.
"Nani is an excellent player. There's a lot more to come from him and I'm sure that in a few years he will be amongst the best players in the world."

I like Nani...but one of the best players in the world? Or by "amongst the best players in the world," he meant that he would play along side them? hehe Come on, CR...he already does!....at United!
In other CR news...he was mentioned in an article by the Daily Mail about Michel Salgado. Salgado was dropped by Real Madrid a month ago to make way for the new signings. He joined Blackburn Rovers (a stone's throw from Manchester United in Cheshire). I have attached the very nice article about him.
This is the quote about CR:
"I spoke to Cristiano Ronaldo and he said I’d enjoy the Premier League. Everyone says the way of life in England, with the weather, is boring but he says that is not real. He says that you live well, the food is good, the way of working in a club is incredible."
