Ronaldo intends to leave Man Utd

Ronaldo has been at Old Trafford for three years

Manchester United's Portuguese winger Cristiano Ronaldo says he wants to leave Old Trafford.

The 21-year-old has been criticised in England for his role in the sending off of team-mate Wayne Rooney when Portugal beat England in the World Cup.

"I think I should get out of Manchester as the circumstances are not right to keep playing there," said Ronaldo.

"Nobody stood up for me, although I did not do anybody any harm. In two or three days I'll decide where to go."

Awww Diddums............................

[Jockstar]

This from soccernet.com......

Manchester United winger Cristiano Ronaldo believes he should leave the club and play abroad.

The Portugal international has come in for a lot of criticism throughout the World Cup, especially for the role he played in Wayne Rooney's sending-off during the quarter-final against England.

Although the winger denied trying to influence the referee after his club-mate Rooney clashed with Ricardo Carvalho, television cameras later picked up the 21-year-old winking at his bench when the England forward was dismissed.

And after Portugal's 3-1 defeat to hosts Germany in the third-place play-off Ronaldo spoke for the first time about his future.

'I think I should get out of Manchester,' he said.

'The circumstances are not right to keep playing in Manchester.

'In two or three days I will decide where to go. I always said I wanted to play in Spain.

'Nobody stood up for me at Manchester, although I did not do anybody any harm.'

Ronaldo, a £12.24million signing from Sporting Lisbon in August 2003, has been linked with Real Madrid in the last week and it appears the Bernabeu could be a likely destination.

When new Real manager Fabio Capello was asked about Ronaldo he said: 'He is a Manchester United player.

'Everyone wants to come to play here and I think he really wants to and this is good news for me.

'We will have to wait and see but at the moment I cannot say anything.'

[redrus]

If he really said those words, he does not deserve the Red shirt. Nevermind the number 7.

[Amethyst]

The English should deport him away.. and not to let him in again

I've had a lot of fun, and a few tears in this World cup , thanks to all of you for making the compo happen! Good luck for all of you in the last roll of the dice

Hope to see some of you in the EPL prediction tourney in about 6 weeks?

You don't have to be a fan of the legue, as Old Croc has shown, but you might become addicted after a season has been predicted [ crap poem in there somewhere... ]

Chon

[Old Croc]

Chon, Thanks for starting the competition and running it (sometimes under great physical pressure ) and remaining at all times fair and impartial!

It's been fun and I'm (not) sorry an Aussie beat the crap out the Europeans who live and breath the game.

(who's this Ronaldo guy everyone keeps talking about?)
