I cant stand Ronaldo, he spends as much time looking for the big screen camera as he does playing football. Big sissy.
Yep. Always looks like he has just stepped out of shower, before going on the pitch. Grabs the ball to take free kicks and.misses.

If he was chocolate, he would eat himself.
I've never liked him.
Do you know what he did once?
Real Madrid won the title, he grabs the trophy and the microphone and said "Cristiano Ronaldo the best player in the world '
He's not fit to lace Lionel Messi's boots.

I agree, Messi was brilliant. Ronaldo loves himself so much. Crying because a penalty was saved before extra time. Never liked him. I heard he's the best footballer to come out of Portugal, no he's not, Eusabio was. (Not sure of spelling)

I can't get past him paying a woman a large sum of money when she accused him of raping her.
The money was paid to keep her quiet. Why?
God knows why he is feted the way he is.

It all happened years ago when he was playing for MU.
"Kathryn Mayorga, 34, has accused Ronaldo of raping her in a penthouse suite at the Palms Casino Resort in June 2009 shortly after they met in a nightclub. At the time, the Portuguese had just completed his £80m move from Manchester United to Real Madrid, making him the most expensive player on the planet.
The lawsuit adds that Mayorga was manipulated and put under pressure by Ronaldo’s “fixers” to agree to the 2010 settlement, which saw the American receive a $375,000 pay-off. Ronaldo’s lawyer acknowledged the existence of this settlement but said it was “by no means a confession of guilt”.

Of course you pay that sort of money if you're innocent. 🙄 What a nasty man he is. I won't be able to look at him again without racist ringing in my head.

Not necessarily. One would ask how did the lady find herself in a Penthouse Suite shortly after meeting Mr Ronaldo in a nightclub and what were her expectations when she went off with him to his Penthouse?
Whenever there is a he says she says situation over a world sports star and celebrity there is going to be a media fenzy because the media can make a lot of money out of it. Mr Ronaldo and the Club (Real Madrid) he just signed for loses in terms of bad publicity, as do all the sponsors that have invested in it - whether Mr Ronaldo is innocent, guilty or somewhere in between. Under such a situation to avoid the media frenzy and the damaging bad publicity it is often best to pay the person off (come to a deal with lawyers on both sides).

I meant rapist not racist. Yes you have a point anon. I assume they paid to shut them up, but by you're reckoning, could be to stop publicity. I can see that, since many stars, footballers etc. have done the same.
Be good to hear what the victim said. Or was she crying rape.

Paying her didn't stop the publicity, it fuelled it.
And as for asking why the woman went to a penthouse suite with him, that was her choice.
They had sex, she says he forced her, he says it was consensual.
A jury would have decided who was telling the truth had it gone to court.
He chose to silence her with money.

Bad for the nerves Mags.
I drank a whole bottle of Rescue Remedy once when the Gers were playing.
Straight down it went and I was still up to high doh.
