I love how they have to call off the bet in November. Sir Alex's hair was in fear.

He meant to say whinger, or whiner. Still, pretty impressive for him to come out of pout and score those goals for us.

Champions of England
Champions of Europe
Wes Brown being our joint top assister in Europe! :eek:
Cristiano Ronaldo scoring 42 goals in 47 games(iirc?) :eek:

With the start we had, with the injuries and lack of fitness in certain key players...I never imagined in my wildest dreams it'd finish like this. This isn't even the best this team could do, but they still pulled through. I'm just savoring this moment right now and I look forward to see how we continue to develop.

Ronaldo has as many goals as our 3 strikers combined. Hopefully, next season, we won't be as dependent on him for goals.

How the hell do you follow a season where you've scored 42 goals? :confused: :confused:
Oh, and if he wins Euro '08 this year, could this 07/08 season be a contender for one of the greatest individual seasons in modern times or is that too hyperbolic?

Is he not the European Golden Boot winner as well? He has every trophy coming to him and it is so well deserved.

You simply cannot argue about the tally. It's groundbreaking given he is not a striker. Certainly something that is amazing in modern times.
He can improve, maybe not in terms of tally, but ...ah, you know.
If he wins the Euros he's going to push himself up a level, for certain.

If he wins the Euros he will stop running on the ground and proceed to float.
Stupendous numbers from a 1 trick pony fancy dan with no end product. I wish I could stick this in the face of all the assholes who hated on him in the past. So happy for Ronnie and United.
I laughed at the goal tallies when the put up United's all time single season scoring leaders in Law and Ruud. 2 of the most prolific 9s to play at the club who were deadly in front of goal being challenged by a wideman.
Anyone have an idea how many headers that is for Ronaldo this year?
I've not said it but what a fcuking header. Amazing leap and perfect placement.

My prediction is that next season he will finally break Ruud's record, but not Law's. But he will double, maybe triple his assist rate, and probably break every record on United's book.

Dunno if I've said this before, but it seems like his aerial ability really comes to the fore in the 'big' games. Off the top of my head, I can recall the FA cup final in his debut season, Milan, Roma, Liverpool and now, Chelsea. It really adds another dimension to his game. Even the penalty he won against Barca was from a header of his.
You'd have to be one hell of a FB to read all his tricks and flicks, keep up with him and tackle him at full pace and make him obsolete in the air. Ronaldo must be a nightmare to mark.
Oh and OTOH, he's scored around 5 headers this season. (Sporting, Roma, Liverpool, Chelsea, West Ham)

There are pictures of how high he got. I think I saw Ronaldo's foot around Essiens waist...

I think his finishing is far from finished so I think in his career he will beat that record in the future. He's missed a good number of goals and we can all admit his finishing can get better. Hell the improvement is therer for some to see.

I honestly cant see him surpassing 42. He might get close next season, but some of the stuff he accidently pulled off this season were one time things.
Like the back heel goal, the one that fell right to his knee, Newcastle being Newcastle, and some of the free kicks.
He can probabaly get 40 or so again, but I would expect his assist tally to grow, and to just become an overall better player.
