There are many football fans in China. There are many football fans in most countries, except America (where football is called soccer). One topic that many many Chinese netizens are discussing right now is Real Madrid buying Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United for 80 million British pounds (~900 million RMB).
Reds accept £80m Ronaldo bid
Manchester United have received a world-record, unconditional offer of £80million for Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid.
At Cristiano’s request – who has again expressed his desire to leave – and after discussion with the player’s representatives, United have agreed to give Real Madrid permission to talk to the player.
Matters are expected to be concluded by 30 June. The club will not comment until further notice.

Saw this already on the official website. True niubility.

Who will be next?

“CLuo” [C = Christiano, Luo = "Ronaldo"] is at least more sincere than Kaka [Ricardo Kaka], “CLuo” has always clearly expressed that he has been a Real Madrid fan since he was small and longed to go play for Real Madrid, and not like Kaka who tried to hide it.
This time switching teams also fulfills “CLuo’s” many years’ wish. I wish the best for “CLuo.”

Fuck, an unthinkable formation for those who play FM [Football Manager].
俺是师大坚强大师:
Real Madrid…truly treating money as if it were nothing, NB~
拉尔许:
The team-switching this summer is too crazy.
冰镇蛤蟆汁:
As a football fan who loves both Ronaldo and Manchester United, I am really sad.
I am really disappointed with Ronaldo.
杜蕾科维奇:
When David Beckham left, I was very upset, but I still loved Manchester United.
When Cristiano Ronaldo leaves, I will also be upset, but I will still love Manchester United.
But one day if Ferguson leaves, it will be very difficult to know whether I will still love Manchester United.
Without Ferguson, Manchester United will just be Manchester United, and not the Red Devils.
zumumao:
Little fatty finally free, oh yeah~
jason_mu:
I support selling Cristiano Ronaldo!
Business-wise it cannot lose.
It can help unite the fan groups.
We cannot know what the results will be, but at least it liberates Rooney.
taitan001:
Barcelona says: “Although you guys (Real Madrid) have bought Kaka and Ronaldo, Messi [Lionel] is absolutely not for sale, so you guys can forget about it!”
Real Madrid says: “So it like this, eh?”, then quietly says:
“100 million?”
“Not enough? 110 million?”
“Still not enough? 120 million…”
Barcelona quickly says: “Wait, wait, let us consider it again, yes… this… this… this… well, it is not as if this matter does not have room for negotiation, right? Right…”
暗夜阴影:
As a Manchester United fan, it is unspeakable happiness. With this, we will finally have money. Spend it well, and cultivate another 2-3 CR [Cristiano Ronaldo]. With Real Madrid doing this, all our debts can be paid off in just a few years.

So niu, burning money like this…
It is said that Cristiano Ronaldo team switching price = Zhang Yimou’s decades of income, Andy Lau singing 900 concerts in a row.
Sweat~
从c到:
Cristiano Ronaldo is just a pervert. Is he really worth that much money? Florentino, this old man has gone crazy. Real Madrid has so many stars it is not a joke, yet they were still so beaten by Barcelona that they cannot even lift their heads. Yet another two talents following in Owen’s footsteps. I seriously despise Real Madrid.
huacher:
A few days ago Milan fans were worried. These two days Manchester United fans were worried. A few days from now, our national football fans will also worry. The reason is because Real Madrid is preparing to sell Maicon, the first time quoting 30 million. After a while, Liverpool fans should also become worried, because Real Madrid will want to buy Alonso [Xabi] and center halfback Agger [Daniel].
费尔南德斯:
Sigh…seeing him going to his beloved team, sad! I think my skills are not bad, and with such a big market…how come old Florentino does not think of finding me! Even if you ask me to be Kaka’s substitute’s substitute, I would be willing! (A Guangzhou football player)
jianti:
I really hate hypocritical football fans. So what if Real Madrid has money? Don’t we slave away for money also? What is wrong with Cristiano Ronaldo liking money? If you have a problem, you guys can go be unpaid staff. All hypocritically saying Cristiano Ronaldo treats anyone with money as his father [treats rich people like boss], but in reality if someone were to throw you one million, you would not even recognize your own parents [do terrible things]! So hypocritical!
aigococo:
I will never say bad things about Cristiano Ronaldo’s. Even though I am a Manchester United fan and although Ronaldo has many defects, what I cannot deny is his talent in football. If there is anything I regret, it is that Ronaldo and Rooney can no longer play together. I also cannot imagine how Ronaldo will play without Rooney. They were the two stars that often made Manchester United fans proud. Now, we will continue forward with Rooney, and wish Ronaldo good luck.

srsly. wtf?
but no surprise.
Soccer……yawn….zzzzzzZZZZZZZZ…….ZZZZZZZZ…….zzzzzzZZZZZZ…….snore…..zzzzzZZZZZZ
Being both a Man United and Barca supporter I can’t say I am thrilled about this move but if the lad really want to go that bad then 80 million definately is a nice payout. Hope the Glazers aren’t gonna pocket it all.
There are a lot of soccer fans in the US, im not one of them tho LOL
kind of like a lot of americans use amtrak, i’m just not one of them ;)
people use amtrak?
actually I used it once, not too bad really, although its a bit on the expensive side
I tried it once, took two hours to get from San Jose to Oakland. (A 20 minute car trip, mind you) And once I had a friend booked a train going down to San Diego, and the train was 16 hours late. (stuck up in Canada because of some freight train)
However, Amtrek bus beats greyhound hands down. But you have to book a train ride with it, and their only have few lines.
Sh!t, i didn-t want him to join Real! I prefer Ribery or Silva rather than him
At least the Chinese government won’t waste that kind of money, for 900 million RMB they can get more than 21 years usage of Green Dam
LOL, I don’t even know who these people are until I read this article. Yeah.. soccer in the US… zZzZzZzZzZzZz
Oh Gee. Aren’t these provincial american posters boring. The topic is football. Not everything is about you and your little corner of the world.
Most Chinese boys wank off to Chrissy Ronaldo, the way they used to over Becks.
time will judge it
Man, what is happening with the world series of soccer these days? Seriously, Ronaldo shot a load of scores in the last coupla seasons, but 80 million bucks is so expensive! His successful tackle to shot numeracy ratio sucks big. This guy wouldn’t last ten minutes in the NFL. WTF?
Sometimes I look back in my younger years… maybe I should have taken Football more seriously… then maybe I will be earning millions playing a sport :>
i am, realy surprised by the action of cristiano.I was earlier thinking tht he was a guy who loves football but he has disappointed us , he only loves money nothing else……………
