Ronaldo wins Ballon d'Or

True Totty but on the flip side theirs nothing more for him to win at Man Utd now.
I think there's much more he can achieve at United, such as trying to win back the hearts of the fans who he let down during the summer as well as cementing his place alongside the United legends. There's no doubt the fans will remember him as a very talented player, but will he be acknowledged as a UNITED legend with the likes of Ole, Best & Charlton??? I'm not too sure.TBH i think he'll stay for a lot longer than many people anticipate.
to be honest the fans who are really pissed at him for the summers incidentwon't be won back this is a guy who was on his way to become a true true united legend banner in the stretford end and all sortsbut the continued bullshit has soiled his reputation so he will never be really looked at fondly by a lotr of united fans some people like to get angry then forgive and forget quick thats just the fickled nature of some football fans The only reason i'd ever entertain the thought of singing any ronaldo chant again unless maybe if its to piss of opposing fans the guy has burnt bridges

02/12/2008 10:29Mourinho: Ronaldo Didn't Deserve Ballon d'OrThe coach chuckled at hearing the news Ronaldo won the prestigious award and he insists one of his players deserved it more...Mourinho: Ronaldo Didn't Deserve Ballon d'OrInter coach Jose Mourinho has stunned everyone with his response when asked to give his views on Cristiano Ronaldo's Ballon d'Or win.The Manchester United ace scooped the award for his wonder season last term where he dragged his side to a Premier League and Champions League double.Ronaldo became the third Portuguese player to have won the Golden Ball after Eusebio and Luis Figo but Mourinho scoffed at the achievement and he revealed he would have preferred to have seen someone else lift it.Asked by Sky Italia about the Ronaldo win and whether he had any praise for the star, Mourinho said, "No, I would have preferred one of my own foreign players to have won the Ballon d'Or."Inter are running away with the Serie A title given the six point gap between them and second place Juventus, but the coach is keeping his feet on the ground."The league still hasn't reached the halfway point and we cannot relax. We will continue to work hard everyday."The coaches' words are likely to cause controversy around the world. The 'Special One' didn't even recognise his fellow countryman's achievement with praise.
