QUOTE (MizNelson @ Dec 9 2008, 06:15 AM)  Was there any particular reason why Big Ron turned down the opportunity to join Siena? Big fish in a little pond, maybe? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif) Frankly, he'd have had a hard time adjusting to their game and style. Also there's a question of him being overworked there. Here at Milan Ronaldo could be better rotated with other players. And finally the ever-elusive CL, which R99 hasn't won. Siena can't offer that. |

Siena can't offer that. acid, i love your passion. and i am also in love with ronaldo, so sentimentally i'm with you. but i must say that i voted for beer. i can't bring myself to say yes to him, cuz we don't need him, or no to him, cuz i love him. and ****, if beer is on the ballot theres very little things in life that would deter me from voting for it. but you said if we get ronaldo, we can get benzema...that i find hard to agree with. so we would have Benzema, Pato, Shevchenko, Ronaldo, Borriello, and Pippo? its tough enough finding time for the 4 that we have..how on earth cud we absorb another two! |

Of course, he should return. I don't care if he gets paid a €1,000 per month his place is at Milan. The reasons: - He'll only add something to our attack, won't take anything away. - Whenever he played, Milan had a different and better outlook. - He won't mind the bench. - We could use him exclusively for CL if need be. - Pato can learn a ton from Ronaldo. - Kaka and Ronaldinho will love his company. - He doesn't rely on his pace as much as Sheva. - And if the Ukranian can come, so can Ronaldo. - We may even have a chance to snap up Benzama, as R99 is his idol. - He'll be motivated for the World Cup 2010 spot. - We'll sell more than enough shirts/sponsorships to cover for his wages and then some. - Unlike say Emerson, and others who doesn't. - He's just on the right side of 30s. - So is Totti and Sheva. - Piero is 34 and still play. R99 can play till he's 99. - He'll just need to work the ball up and create chances for our strikers, not score goals. - His experience is unmatched, which is never a bad thing in tough situations. - Finally having a big name like Ronaldo in a team will divert the opponent team's attention to him. In a single word: Sign him at first possible chance! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/king.gif) Well...let's see. - He'll add nothing to our attack - Whenever he played...yes. I don't think he'll make us look better now. - Maybe he won't mind the bench....I don't think so. He's a football player because he actually wants to play. Otherwise Ronaldo would be a football bencher. - No player wants to play CL football only. Besides that, even if Ronaldo would agree he wouldn't be in shape. You need to play to be on form. More than twice a month. - Pato can learn from Ronaldo...maybe. But he won't learn much from an injured R99. - Kaká and Ronnie love his company...shouldn't they have some beers with him then? - He might not rely on pace but he rely on fitness and health. Something I haven't seen from in almost a year now. - I'm not a fan of Sheva rejoining us either. But then, besides Ronaldo, he's a Milan legend. - Benzema won't join because Ronaldo is here. Simple as that. - A WC 2010 spot? Are you joking? He won't have a chance to get that anyway. - Maybe we'll earn some money by signing him. But this is still a football club, not a company. Our concern should be whether he adds something to our squad, not to our bank account. - Is he on the right side of the 30ies? As you mentioned some players like Totti (or Ballack to give another example) can still play some great football in their early 30ies. But they are not as injury prone as the fa(s)t Brazilian. - He's a striker...scoring goals is the very reason form him being on the pitch! - Of course his experience is not unmatched....look at Maldini, Pippo etc. Experience is not our problem. - Divert the opponent team's attention? A fit Ronaldo could do that...not a fat one. Ina single word: Naah |

Looks like Big Ron settled the debate for us.
The Italian press is reporting that he's just signed for Corinthians. |

What is it with Ronaldo's habit of signing with rival teams? Barca/Madrid, Inert/Milan, and now Flamengo/Corinthians. Can't say he's not adventurous.
