Loyalty Eh? Its the club which counts and the guy has been performing at his best for 2-3 years now. He's the best player in the planet, Ofcourse he will want to fulfill his dreams to go to Real Madrid. Atleast i respect that. If i was a Real Madrid player and i supported United, i know i would still want to play for United even if Real Madrid won the European Title 15 times.

Ill give you 4 reasons.
1. 42 goals in a season
2. Best player on planet
3. Was instrumental in United winning the European Title last season
4. Shirt Sales
As i said, UNITED is bigger then Ronaldo. Its UNITED what counts for me. I support Ronaldo BECAUSE he plays well for United and when Ronaldo perform, United win trophies. Its not the other way around. I dont support United BECAUSE of ronaldo. I dont care if we get 10 more selfish players like Ronaldo, its the club's success which counts for me. We already have alot of players who are devoted to the club and they are great players. It doesnt matter if Ronaldo is not as devoted as others, what counts is he is performing to his best for United.

This is a misconception that rival fans like to say. Remember Beckham? People used to say the same thing. We support our players, through the bad times and through the good times. We stand by our players, that doesnt mean we think they are bigger then the club. Ronaldo can leave for Madrid if he wants, United will still win trophies that i can guarantee you. Ronaldo isnt bigger then the club and whoever thinks that he is, doesnt know anything about football.
Ronaldo wouldnt have got half as many goals if Rooney hadnt played his heart out every match playing out of position most of the times, Dropping in deep, playing at Left midfield right midfield week in week out and not saying anything only to let Ronaldo bomb forward. Ronaldo got so many goals because players like Tevez, Rooney, Scholes created those for him and also because he is a good player.
