Might just be me but if Cristian ends up in the blue half of Manchester, I will not consider the guy a United legend anymore.

{Ed077's Note - I wont hold any grudge against him when we don't seem to be trying to sign him and Man City look the only team seriously exploring the chance of signing him.

City were just the noisy neighbours 15 years ago...

I agree Ed for me the club should be looking at the deal if city think he can add to them surely he can for us!?

I'd rather have him playing than martial! feels like the club have done 2 deals and forgot there are still parts of the squad to improve still time though.

I really hate the idea of him going city when he could offer us so much but we can't complain about the player if the club don't even attempt the transfer.

I'd swap him for pogba get martial out on sale or loan and bring in 2 of neves camavinga and if there's still a chance saul (I'd also let others go like matic and lingard)

{Ed077's Note - but that's too much to be done in 3-4 days time.

Well you can dream eh

Is that when people aren’t allowed to wear jeans Ken?

It’s not like he’s turned us down to sign for them, nobody else wants them and if he signs he will be on about £500k a week, at 36 that’s a little too much for me and if city are willing to pay it then fair play to him for going, we all would.

It is Ed didn't we confirm our last deal about 2 weeks ago though and it was all pretty much done a week or so before that 4 weeks of farting around asking too much for players who aren't going to play.

He will lose a lot of the love United fans have for him if he does go to City.

However, he's also obsessed with being the best. Going to City and possibly winning another league or 2 as well as a CL is only going to add to his legacy. In my opinion he's the best ever and even though Juve are apparently looking for a fee of £30m plus he'd be on big wages, it's a no brainer for any club who can afford him imo.

I'd also say we should be trying to sign him.

There have been a few players to cross the Manchester divide, some of them club legends like Denis Law and Peter Schmeichel.

If Ronaldo joins City I don't expect many United fans to be thrilled about it. Yet he'd be there for 2 years at most taking him to 38 years old.

Give it 5 years and he will still be a United legend to most fans, by the time 10 years pass no one will care anymore.

{Ed077's Note - if I was Man City I would have "Welcome to Manchester" 2.0 with CR7 and watch the Man Utd supporters melt:-D

I don't think i'd suppoet him as muxh either if he does go there and that's only because i absolutely dislike man city.

I wouldn't blame him to be honest because we're not even in for him.

I really don’t have a lot of love for him. Great player for us but desperate to get to Madrid.

Didn't care when Coley went don't care now.

Like Etoo going to Anzhi.

I'm with you there ajh maybe its a generational thing. I just don't get all the hype if he goes to city its not ideal. But only because he is still a top player and will make them stronger not because he used play for us.
Loved watching him play for us and he was fantastic but he wanted out and lived his dream. Ill remember him fondly and him signing for city won't change that 1 iota.

I would turn my back on him. Balls to that fair play stuff. I dislike the cole and Schmeichel moves etc but that was a different city. We are trying to bridge the gap and he comes in and puts us another 2 years back? Dennis Law was before my time so hard to feel too emotional but Ronnie? The only player who made me feel like that was Cantona. Anything was possible.

I personaly pledge to kick any person who sings 'viva ronaldo', when he returns to Old Trafford, square in the nuts.

On the other side of the coin . come home Ronnie! Please!

He is exactly what we have been missing. A totally dedicated professional who wants to maximise his talent and wants to win win win. Truth is that he would fit City better than us because they are strong enough as a team already not to need him working back
defending. We still need better midfielders.

Glad we have never been in for him 2 centre forwards combined age 70! We'd be a laughing stock .

Personally I'm glad we haven't tried to sign cr7. The way forward isn't to have a 36 yr old shadowed by a 34 yr old on a combined salary of probably over 500 k per week.
