its kinda funny, i have a horrible memory, but i do remember hearing about christiano ronaldo back in 2003 when he still played in portugal with sporting lisbon. as a manchester united fan, i was pleased to hear he was signed that summer and still remember his debut match against bolton that year. the past six years of watching him grow with the worlds best, henry, gerrard, terry, lampard, shearer, bergkamp, barthez, anelka, ljunberg, gudjohnsen, davids, etc ... and at only 18, he was one among those names. i also remember him not wanting to wear the #7 due to the talent that has passed thru those old trafford halls with that number, best, contana, beckham. i think hes filled the position just fine. as a man utd fan, its gonna suck seeing him leave, but it is something every kid wants to do as footballer, play for the best, and real is one of the best clubs in the world. its been in his wishes for the past couple years. after roumors and gossip of him leaving last summer, i was glad he stayed. it wouldve been nice toping off his last year with that CL victory, but thats football. to say well never see him back in a man u jersey is ducky ... but still a possibility. everyone says his a bitch and over rated, arrogant, stuborn, whiny, whatever ... but denying hes one of the best you cant. i wish him the best in spain and the rest of his career. this aint a goodbye or farewell, but a "see you later".
P.S. - this is gonna leave the doors open for macheda and perhaps some big summer signing ??
GLORY GLORY MAN UTD !!!
