Players define a team. Good players make up an average team but a good squad makes a Championship winnning team. As we stand on the verge of the Winter break and the upcoming transfer season. The rumours are running riot and the wildest of specultations seems a reality now. Players are up for grabs, and it will be interesting to see which Manager makes it count this transfer window. Time to get to work Managers and bring some quality in your side.(Unless you are thinking off buying Carroll).
Manchester United were relatively active over the summer with the deals of Ashley Young, Phil Jones and David De Gea to bolster their squad. Young and Jones in particular have been sensational so far this season, and the pair have already made the 36.5 million outlay on them as money well spent. De Gea has made up his ground after a horror start.
Ferguson is a master of reinvention, and the Scot is an advocate of refreshing his squad at every opportunity, a policy that has served him well throughout his career. So, we are sure to some new faces in red before the end of the season.
Okay, it's a long shot given Ronaldo's success since arriving in Madrid, but the portigese has "refused to rule out a Return" to Premier League. And if he were to make a dramatic u-turn and head back to the league where he made his name, what better club for him to continue at than United? Ronaldo didn't endear himself to all and sundry at United with the way he flirted with Real Madrid in the run-up to his eventual departure, but his relationship with the one man who counts seems to be rock solid.
Once, his 80 Million move to the Bernabeu had been signed and sealed, Ronaldo was quick to point out that he considered Alex Ferguson as a father figure in sport and one of the most influential fact in his career. And it seems that his relationship with the United boss has stood the test of time and distance, with Ronaldo recently revealing he still considers Ferguson to be his "second dad" and that he regularly picks up the phone to chew the fat with him.
United don't need Ronaldo any more - they have evolved without him and found different ways of breaking down opposition defenses - but that is not to say he would not be a welcome addition to the side that is facing an unlike-United period now!
He offers so much, it's hard to imagine he wouldn't waltz straight back into Ferguson's side. The question is, would Ferguson bring back a player who left the club to go to Spain? He's done it before with Mark Hughes - with quite some success, so why not with one of the best players the club has ever known? Stranger things have happened.
Ronaldo had also revealed that he would like to come back to Manchester within a short span of time. Many think that United can't spend the big bucks right now because of debt problems. But The actual rule is that a club can spend the same amount they make a profit of and Manchester United have a net profit of around 100 million. So FUNDS ARE NOT A PROBLEM.
After the El Clasico, many Madrid fans booed Cristiano on his way back to the dressing room. I accept that he had a bad day but still... that's no way to treat your star player. I wish he realises what United and their fans stand for and makes an unlikely comeback. I would like to end this speculation by repeating the chant
"Viva Ronaldo, Viva Ronaldo
Get him on a plane,
Get him back from Spain.
Viva Ronaldo"
