Cristiano Ronaldo Forever - The Cristiano Ronaldo Thread

I was waiting for:

fierro: "the gash was photoshopped out"

Alma Merengue: "it wasn't... but alright, how is Pepe in the pics if he was with Portugal?"

fierro: "Pepe was photoshopped in"

 

Unfortunately, things like the pic below lend credence to the rumors that are circulating around Cristiano Ronaldo.

Last night as the team was getting together at the hotel:

 

Grow up Ronnie

 

Hah. Pathetic.

 

If this is him lashing out the better question is what happened recently which affected him and why is our management incapable of keeping him happy?

Then again, that is crazy talk from YS.

 

Media photoshop. The Spanish media continues their persecution of Portuguese players.

 

So did everyone else's camera broke at that exact moment or what? Where are the other pictures? Why isn't Marca or Sport reporting it?

It looks fake, especially because I don't think he would ever do something as offensive as that.

And funny how almost everybody that has posted so far believed it. If a lack of support is Ronaldo's problem, I don't blame him.

 

Its pretty huge if it's true. Thats for sure.

Mr bigger than the club..

Sad stuff either way..

 

Why he needs support at all? Did he have bad childhood with no toys? Show your worth on the field, not after the game by being "drama queen".

 

You know the picture will appear everywhere because they will use that same image, Punto Pelota has published it too (looks to be the same shot, but zoomed in).

It looks fake because you don't think he'd do that? Come again?!?! So if AS did photoshop a picture as offensive to Socios as that is ... would Real Madrid not have said something by now? C'mon.

 

I would wait for it to be confirmed by other media before lashing out. AS seems to be on a witch hunt against him or for him or whatever shit.

 

Not everyone. I said "If that is" meaning a possibility but not sure. Also I like you am starting to really believe this is a support problem. He is our star player, our best player and get elbowed in the head, bloodied yet it was basically swept under the rug minus Marca giving the situation a little attention. What happened between last night and two weeks ago when he was just fine?

I'm sure they'll say its money.

Imagine if that happened to Messi? Casillas? The amount of anger? Uproar? Club response?

If this is the problem, of course Cristiano is the one at fault and not the club for poorly handling a situation. As if Messi wouldn't react angrily that his club basically acted like nothing happened if he was almost KO'd on the pitch without even a card given, didn't leave or run from it, scored while being partially blinded/concussed, etc.

Instead now we are having this guy painted the enemy with a picture on one outlet, not even waiting to see if both Madrid papers carry it. Ironically this same outlet has been trying to drive the hysteria of "Fuera Cristiano, Fuera!" for the last 10 or so days.

Then again, it is those who want this that drive it. Then cry foul about it. Such is life.

 

Wait... so some of you really think this is a photoshop job by AS?

Try reading the Alfredo Relaño piece in AS today where he defends Cristiano Ronaldo. You all know Alfredo Relaño... the director of AS. He writes a piece supporting Cristiano Ronaldo and then approves an alleged photoshop to stir things up.

If this is fake, where is the response? From the club? From the player himself? Because if he did it ... it is fuucked up -- regardless of who you want to blame/defend.

 

Posters are only saying that we are not sure yet and are waiting for confirmation from other outlets. Is there something wrong with that? Should we join in the hysteria and burn him alive pre-Bilbao?

Please instruct.

Also, nobody has stated if he did do it that it isn't a terrible thing. Only that anyone with a brain would not absolve the club for the situation being shit.

 

I can tell you the story is also being carried by Punto Pelota, El Pais, Goal.com and El Mundo Deportivo but the response would be: "they are all anti-Cristiano Ronaldo so they don't count." And the major pro-Madrid/anti-all-things-media twitter feed hasn't said a word yet. Not a peep.

 

I not am saying he did or didn't do it. As far as no support from the club, well why is that surprising. They didn't do anything to support him when he got injured. So, why would they start now?

Let's be honest how many of the real madrid supporters thought when he went down during the Lavante game that he was diving, until you saw the blood?

 

Goal.com carried it? I mean Goal.com have never carried an untrue story and never rehash articles. I think it is because of their strong journalistic standards.

Anyways, before you twist our words (which you will do anyways), nobody said it was definitely not true. Only that they wanted more confirmation before they burn the guy.

 

Let that die. You're talking to a guy who still has not admitted the club handled that Navarro situation poorly and only wants to have a go at the player. Trust me I am.

 

Let me be very clear: I am certainly not saying the club should 'support' a player that covers the team logo. What I am saying is this: IF this picture and story are indeed fake, why has the club not said anything? Do you not think people at the club are in scramble mode over this? We may see something like: "This is how players know which jacket belongs to them. We not only put it in their locker, but we tape their number on it as well. In this instance, the player forgot to remove the tape."

The second part of your post is just plain ridiculous.
