Ex-Real Madrid president Calderon: Ronaldo does not regret Man Utd exit

Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Sun, 03/14/2010 - 11:46

Former Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon is confident Cristiano Ronaldo doesn't regret leaving Manchester United last summer.

Ronaldo has seen United go from strength-to-strength since his world record move to Madrid, who are now out of the Champions League.

Asked on BBC Radio Five Live's Sportsweek programme if Ronaldo regretted his move to Madrid, Calderon said: "I don't think so.

"He did what he wanted to do, he came to a big club. The idea was to win everything but you can't buy everything with money.

"Even though you think you've got lot of very good players together, that's not the same as having a good team."

haha well what's calderon gng to say. "sorry i forced madrid to spend £80million on the best player in the world and after 6 months he hates us and wants to go home back to manchester united. and despite how good he is we still lost in the CL"
and calderon bleeting on about rooney is just trying to wind fergie up after he said i wouldnt sell that mob a virus and comparing real madrid to the franco era. he hates united. just trying to stir. and make some publicity for himself as he will want to run again in 18 months time.

Come May when United lift the CL trophy in the Bernabeu while their fans celebrate in the streets of Madrid singing 'Glory glory Man United', he might pay 80million himself to move back to Manchester!!!

Madrid will never win the CL and even the La Liga. Barca are the kings of Spain and no matter who they buy, Madrid stand no chance of winning anything.....English clubs will continue to dominatte the CL, with City spending so much, it wont be long untill we get 4 teams into the semis every year!
