This man really has a huge chip on his shouder when it come to English teams, had it been any other country, I bet he would have said that the player should honour their contract. Yet another nonsense comment made by the footballing version of Boris Johnson (minus the humour and intelligence;))
Really annoys me when he comes up with drivel like this, just thought I'd share with you all and vent a bit
 
I think that is Blatter having a bit of an under-handed go back at United. If we go down this route that Ballter endorses, what do we see next. Ronaldo play for United in August, Madrid in January and Milan the Following August.

All the time, the player gets a signing on fee which means less money being filtered down to the youth systems and grass roots. The man is a cancer that is killing football from within
 
Come on a tool is at least useful.

I am looking to apply to be a Football Slave on £100K a week plus.................... I'd even settle for £5K a week at a push ;)
 
He's an idiot. At the end of the day, Real Madrid can't afford Ronaldo hence why Real have been quiet regarding the transfer of Ronaldo over the past 1-2 weeks. Real of just been rejected by two banks for a £60m I think loan so as it stands now, Real have no money and Ronaldo will not be going their way unless a bank gives into their loan request.

Ronaldo is aware of Real's financial situation hence why he is keeping quiet until Real give him the go ahead to request a transfer when Real secure the money.
 
Frankly, in the same way Beckham did quite a lot further along in his career, Ronaldo will in the short term, and a hell of a lot more in the long term, provide a lot of money with regards to advertising money, endorsements and world fan base appeal. Banks aren't stupid a £60million fee, with a couple million a year in interest will see them get £100mil or more back in return. A couple of banks might be stupid enough to not go for it, but plenty of banks will see it as a fantastic return and very very low risk. Frankly the Spanish, and Madrid government constantly bail out Real Madrid, as it makes them loads of money themselves in tourism revenue, tax from the club being run itself, tax on the gate reciepts, so Madrid would never ever let Real Madrid fold. Its an almost risk free profit in the tens of millions.

In other words, the banks aren't the problems, its the board, the proposal, the plan or that they aren't sure they can keep him for that long and if/when they sold him could get the same money back. Though frankly, people might be thinking he'll bounce everywhere, but Real Madrid is his boyhood team he watched all his life, people don't often leave those types of clubs(at least while they are still wanted).

Blatter, and Platini are complete morons, though they do have a relatively good reason for slight anti English feelings as Man U and mostly Chelsea are ruining the transfer market with ridiculously expensive player buying. Real Madrid did pay a lot of money for players, but while 47million for Zidane, pretty much unquestioned as the worlds best player at the time, and even now Ronaldo for 60mil as most people think he's the best, they wouldn't pay £22 million for a Shaun Wright Phillips, its chelsea buying lots of incredibly not fantastic players, for ridiculous amounts that have massively pushed up prices, and its English league wages that are pushing up wages everywhere. SO there is some reason to have an anti English club management vibe going on. Real madrids one ludicrous transfer every couple years hasn't done anywhere near the damage Chelsea did, or English wages have done to football in the last few years.

So expecting a player to honour his contract to a football club is like modern slavery?
Let him visit some of the slums in India and see forced child labour, then he'll know what slavery is.
Moron.
 
ha just went onto the bbc site and saw this and knew there would be a topic on here with "blatter is a...".

He is absolutely ridiculous whenever it comes to anything to do with english football
 
Him and Platini are the biggest pair of hypocrites to ever roam the earth

They are hypocrites of the highest order. When Italy was buying all the good players in the 80's and 90's to ensure nobody else would do, where was Platini then ? Thats right, taking a nice fat signing on fee at Juve. Yet now, it's English football that is the demon because it has 4 teams in the last 8 of the champions league

When Steve McManaman walked away from Liverpool after the club had nurtured his talent and they got £0.00 in return, where was Blatter.

The pair of em can kiss my hairy plumbs :mad:
 
Can't stand these guys. It's phenomenal the state of which the game is run. Not only do we have Platini and Blatter, two blatently racist men against the English, but then the next two International footballing events are in two of the worlds most dangerous countries, South Africa and Poland.
 
I dont get why people like him have to weigh in on somethin that a) has nothing to do with him and b) has calmed down significantly recently.

Its like he's worried people will forget about football in the absence of it so he has to stir it up every now and then to get people talking about it again, idiot.

Football should be about the team, not the individual and him comin out and pretty much sayin "any player should be able to do what they want, when they want" just dilutes the game's integrity further still.

What does it do for kids startin out in the game when the, essentially, pope of the sport is making statements like that? We know Real is Ronaldo's boyhood dream and whatever but thats not the point is it.

Poland? :D
 
If this was any other club than an English club, he'd have an entirely different view

The man is a total tool
 
What an absolute ******, if earning £120k+ a week is slavery what in the name of all that is holy is the working conditions that children and adults are forced into in other countries. Blatter and Platini are grade A **** heads!
