Ronaldo’s done everything the right way his whole career, his only “flaw” is he’s not a bitch. Deserved a better ending in so many ways. He’s the best footballer of all time
This Ronaldo situation has been handled terribly.
He’s got one of the biggest egos in sport, and after the career he’s had, why wouldn’t he?
If Portugal no longer wanted him involved, then sit him down and tell him to his face. Don’t keep him around when his name, image and commercial pull still benefit you, then suddenly make him look like the problem.
If he feels used, I completely understand why he’d be furious.
After everything he’s given that country, he deserved honesty at the very least.
Newcastle have moved on 6 of their 10 top earners from last season, and replaced 7 players with an average age of 30 with 8 players with an average age of 21.
Combined with changing the manager it's about as big a demographic shift as you'll ever see in one window #NUFC
Jaissle will lead us to great things. This team has so much heart and character. It’s now time for the board to back him and give him the tools to achieve what we now know is possible. Almost the perfect day, but a strong point on face value as gutting as that was.
