SAF- "I regret selling Ronaldo for 80 mill,it shouldve been alot more"
by Adit Sun May 06, 2012 9:15 am
“You can only assess value on success. Like Real Madrid with Ronaldo. They’ll be saying ‘we’d have paid £160m for him with all he’s done’. At more than a goal a game he’s been a fantastic buy for them. At the time we thought £80m was not bad. Now I’m saying to myself it should have been a lot more.”

Like he said you can only assess the players value on success, no way ronaldo goes for like 50 mill or something,given his marketing and performance.
Shevchenko went for 35 mill 4 seasons ago. Ronaldo is a better and marketable player than say sheva or crespo etc.

Kicks right it did ruin the market, chelsea were going for ribery that season and Bayern wanted 80mil for him because of the CR transfer, they even rejected a 45mil+bossingwa offer
still like adit said, in terms of marketability im sure CR merchandise sales alone have made RM alot more them 80mil

His goal-a-game stat or whatever is only applicable in La Liga. He never got those kinds of numbers here
Hell, in his best season here, he had to dive, moan, beg and cry his way to several non-existent penalties and free kicks to achieve his record

Haven't you heard of £80million Bargain, He's worth all the money and to some extent he's worth a lot more.

Only applicable to laliga ? what a BS.
He had a 42 goal 2 season before coming to RM and ever heard players improving?
CR is playing striker role in RM ,he spends most of his time near penalty box and its not a surprise he scores that amount.

He got 23 goals in 28 games in CL for Madrid. He had 16 in 55 for United. How can you deny that he has improves as a goal scorer..?

I regret your existence Sir Alex.
- Spoiler:
- His goal a game stat if I may correct you Lex, is only applicable in Real Madrid as a result of a couple factors.
1.Alot more penalties than United days
2.Benzema , Di Maria and Ozil lay it on a platter for him 90% of the time
3.He takes roughly the same amount of shots as the rest of the attackers (Benz,Callejon,Di Maria,Ozil,Higuain). No hyperbole....it's a legit stat.

If he scores more goals in a harder league, it's only logical to assume that he has improved.

Cris' transfer fee was worth the marketing dollars alone. Paid for himself by April of his first year with the club.

I dont get how people can bash ferguson and hail CR7 , if not anything he(Manchester United ) who spent 17m at first place to get him . D o you thing Real Madrid would have bought him and make him to be the player that he is???

I don't see how much more it could have been considering it's already an insane ammount and the current transfer record.
He probably could have squeezed off a few more mill, though... Uncle Flo knew his worth.
As in, economical worth :vagi:

CR's current economical worth can only be tapped by Madrid though. No other team can make as much money off its players as much as Madrid, primarily due to being the club with one of the largest and diverse fanbases in the world.

Not yet, but i admire your vision for Barcelona. With the way Barcelona's stock is rising among the young generation and consistent trophies, they will overtake Madrid very soon.
