Ronaldo, Ronaldo, Ronaldo

Morning people, Ronaldo’s future is shrouded in yet more mystery as more Barcelona’s players seek to unsettle the Portuguese superstar. Deco, the latest in a number of high profile players has stated that Ronaldo would be perfect for Barcelona, but if were honest I don’t think there is a team that Ronaldo wouldn’t be perfect for.

The only person who can stop these rumours is Ronaldo himself! Manchester United have stood by him through thick and thin. The fans have been nothing short of magnificent in their support of him after the Rooney spat after the world cup. Most importantly is the part that Ferguson has played in the development of a player who was more of a show pony than the finished article when he arrived at Old Trafford.

All Ronaldo would have to do is either sign a new contract or come out to the press outlining hi intention to commit his future to Manchester United. The longer this saga continues, the more unsettling it is for the other members of the squad. It is high time Ronaldo repaid the manager and the fans for the faith they have shown in him.

Enough of Ronaldo, let’s look forward at the weekend’s action. Saturday see’s us take on Reading. It’s another home fixture with Steve Coppell saying he will field a second string side. On paper this would suggest that this fixture is a walk in the park for United, but I for one think that it is far from the case. United always seem to make life difficult for themselves and we must ensure that we proceed to the next round on Saturday.

The Champions league reconvenes next week with us facing Lille. Again we have been landed a favourable draw against a side we really should be looking to beat. I have a feeling that the return game at Old Trafford is going to offer some real fireworks. Is anybody going?

Then it’s the big one against Liverpool. Lose and the title race is straight back on. Win and it gets one of those difficult games out of the way and maintains the pressure on Chelsea! It is getting to that stage of the season where Chelsea will be really puching to get results in games and could quite easily see them trying too hard in games and coming unstuck!

As the run in hots up I for one would not want to be supporting any other team right now. United always provide drama and entertainment of the highest calibre!

P.S the forum is up and running now, it took me all day to clear it up after the spammers left their mark!
