real madrid are so stupid, i am a madrid fann and never let it go. who is ronaldo to robinho? bcos of c.ronaldo tryn to sale a player that work so hard for them, i cant believe that. the head of real madrid transfer is foolish. Players better than that player are many,eg. Ricardo queresma,Sweinsteiger, diego,elano,fabregas,de rossi,aquilani,mancini,kaaka. real should stop waisting their time on one player. Many good players to be bought in that price. madrid think???????

Ronaldo can go to real madrid but it would only be good business for united if they get wesley sneijder and around 45m. Ferguson would prob. do well to buy a forward like benzema with the cash and have a nice bit of spare change...bye bye christino great player but a twat the team could be better without him.Real madrid can poach him its not as if Ferguson has,nt done it in the past...united supporter Ireland
