With Valencia wearing 25 yesterday I began to start the wishful thinking! My uncle works at Manchester airport and said that Ronaldo arrived on a private jet today! What do you all think?

I think that you have just made that up. "My cousin works at a late night petrol station and seen messi order a pack of ciggies up near Carrington" These sort of rumours which includes yours are nonesense.

I think the 'my (insert relatives name) works at (insert relevant airport, training facility etc) and saw (insert marquee signings name)' type rumours have long since lost any credibility!

. be nice if it was true though

Would love it to be true, but cannot see it myself sly sports would be all over it otherwise.

Been waiting all window for one of these posts. can't believe it's taken this long to be honest ha ha

I'm in Madrid since Saturday, and I really do think I saw Ronaldo drive into the Bernabeu complex this morning and sign some autographs.

Unless it was an impostor, or he has a twin brother, I think someone is writing BOTOX.

Would also like to say that Valencia gave up the number 7 shirt at the end of last season, not recently.
Has nothing to do with Ronaldo.

I think Valencia gave up the cause long ago. Not united quality.

Belfz, Valencia is United quality, he's just had awful form for a season. A player cannot simply be voted best United player by his fellow colleagues then be labelled 'not United quality' at the end of the next season.

To unknown,

Why, if Valencia gave up the no.7 at the end of the season did he wear 7 against Sevilla for Rio's testimonial? Where all other player wore their correct squad numbers

I tried to post relating to Valencia having the No. 25 shirt, but for some reason the Eds didn't want to put it up. It said something along the lines of "cue a fresh round of Ronaldo rumours".

I's be interested to see exactly how many people think Ronaldo will be signed. I have a £20 bet with my brother that he won't.

It does make me chuckle that Valencia has been at the club for 4 years and has played well for 18 months of that for one reason or another and yet people jump to his defence. If Nani, Anderson or a few others had that record then they would be, and have been, lynched.

To tbir.

I know he's worn it up 'til now, but I was sure at the end of last season I read he requested his old shirt back.
After having a look for a quote perhaps I was wrong.
However, I would still maintain that vacating the number 7 shirt is not for Ronaldo per se, but that Valencia was giving it up anyway.


13.) 12 Aug 2013
Nani or Anderson ever been voted player of season by players or fans? They have both had patches of brilliance but neither have performed consistently well throughout a whole season.
I would still like to keep them both though, for now, and give them a chance to do so under the new manager.

If Valencia gave up 7 at the end of last season why was he still United's 7 in the Charity Sheild Programme yesterday? I don't think Ronaldo's coming back but I wouldn't be surprised if there was a new signing wearing that shirt by the end of the window. I just hope it isn't Fellaini, he isn't good enough for the number 7.


15.) 12 Aug 2013
Paddy Crerand also said that Ronaldo has flown in today. Lots of people questioning his reliabilty but I can't think why he would make this up.

I'm hesitant in letting myself get carried away after the summer so far, but i'm sure we couldn't wish for anything better.

Giggs 11,
I think Nani had a great 2010-11 season!


17.) 13 Aug 2013
Nani was voted Player of the Season 2010/2011. not sure if it was by fans or by players. he was great that season, not bad in 2011/2012 either, just that Valencia had a superb season then. last season marred by injuries. still the best of our wingers imo.
