Rafael Leao To Adorn "Ronaldo's Iconic No 7" For Next Two Games by fergie001(op): 12:02pm On Oct 01

Ronaldo Leaves Portugal training Camp Amid Rift With Coach, Jorge Jesus

Re: Rafael Leao To Adorn "Ronaldo's Iconic No 7" For Next Two Games by Watianoengineer(m):
The most selfish player ever liveth. My dream is to score 1000 goals. Even if Portugal is defeated 10-1, he prefers to score the only goal to add to his goal stacks.

Never cared about the collective success of the team. Everything thing to him is personal records and goals.


Who would have believed he wouldn't hang boot after the terrible and shameful performance at the last world cup?

A 41 year old football grandpa that prefers to die on the field than let the younger generation flourish and shine.

Had Luis Figo and Co played till their 50's without allowing the young Ronaldo to shine,will Ronaldo be who he is today?

Leave when the ovation is loud but he chose the path of humiliation and shameful ending because of obsession to score 1000 goals.

All he achieved is fast crumbling because of greed. His shirt number that ought to be retired has been immediately transfered to the next generation.

What a sad end for a once respected global star.

This is no way to treat CR7 that has done so much for Portugal & paid his dues to football.

Yes, leaving camp was wrong, but the coach was equally disrespectful in inviting a VIP like CR7 to his squad & abandoning him on the bench for 90mins.
He should have at least given him even if it's 10mins of playtime.
Worse still, the coach stated he would not start CR7 in the next match against Denmark, &that he may or may not bring him in as substitute.
That was when CR7 decamped.

Bear in mind that Ronaldo really desires to clock 1000 career goals. The coach should have left him out of the squad if he had no intention of playing him.

Let's see how far this disrespect would carry them.

There would never be another CR7.

It is a UEFA rule that squad numbers must be assigned serially with no omission. There is no hidden agenda.

People should read and understand

Second GOAT




Should follow




FIRST GOAT footsteps and retired.

There is no disrespect here though. FIFA does not allow skipping numbers for competitive tournaments.
Re: Rafael Leao To Adorn "Ronaldo's Iconic No 7" For Next Two Games by Dukeolumidemans(m): 12:22pm On Oct 01
All Ronaldo fans will be vexing more than Christiano Ronaldo himself.

My candid advice is for Ororo to retire honorably as the GOAT Messi did. He will be celebrated in style in 5 days time through out the world, while penaldo will be seen as very arrogant and self centered as usual. Know this and know peace.

I cum in Peace.

he should not disrespect the team and the management, this is football and he wouldn't have become who he was without his team, he needs to drop his arrogance.

Madrid complained, United complain, Juventus complained now Portugal is complaining

It's shameful Portugal team decided to treat the main individual who put even their nation on the football map.

They had virtually nothing before him.
