Last year I was loving the Ronaldo chants, and saw people making this argument and completely disagreed, but today as soon as I heard the Ronaldo chants, I instantly felt uncomfortable with it.

Cantona cost us *1.2 million*, gave us 5 years then retired. Ronaldo cost is 17 million, gave us 6 seasons and then gave us 80 million. Both gave us success beyond which we had previously known and left the club richer for their time here. Cantona also got banned for half a season.

Viva Ronaldo.
 
Young had space and time to run in the box but he hesitates and crosses as if he was under pressure.

Maybe you're right.. but I'd prefer to sing about a loyal player than a player who was excellent on the pitch. It's just opinion though.. I see all the things Cesc Fabregas says about Arsenal, and I think... that is real love for a club... I don't feel Ronaldo is the same, but then again, maybe Fabregas is just OTT and bad to compare with.

In terms of loyalty Fabregas and Ronaldo are no different, except that Ronaldo never said that he was going to spend his entire career at United. He had always said that he wanted to play in Spain some day. He's always maintained that Fergie is like his second father, keeps in touch with some of the players regularly and is always complimentary about all things associated with the club.

That is much more than some of the players who we sing about, yet there's no problem with them being sung about because they... yes, what exactly? They didn't fetch us a world record fee? Or because they didn't stick to their principles and left for the country they always wanted to play in?



ARGH feckING HELL, Now Young is injured. Can this shit just feck off?!

Well, retirement is different to joining another club, and I'm sure 99% of fans would prefer to keep a player than have a profit. Profit is a nice bi-product of losing an excellent player.
 
Fergie will be injured at this rate.
 
are our players made of glass this is getting silly.
 
So Villa hasn't beaten us at home since Alan Hansen said "you don't win anything with kids" and Beckham scored his first goal for us? Wow. Didn't realise it had been that long.
 
Talking of Ronaldo, I'm surprised more players don't wear the same level of ankle strapping he does
