I've been reading all day on various football sites that Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon has said that the pursuit of Christiano Ronaldo is over "forever". This should signal the end to this saga right? I do not think so. The simple fact is that elite European clubs should not be trusted with their words because one day their presidents or directors say the chase is over and then when reelection comes along they promise their fans that big-name signings like Ronaldo will be theirs. So I find it very hard to trust any of these guys. That being said, it may be possible that the chase is over on Real's side of things, but do you think that it is over for Ronaldo? I doubt it.
Even though I think that Manchester United is a better side than Real Madrid at the current moment. I believe that Ronaldo's heart is not totally in Manchester. His goal celebrations have been more subdued and he does not seem his old self on the field. I have been starting to wonder when is he going to start sabotaging his stay in Manchester. I believe that he is one of those types that could possibly do something like that. He can start getting underneath players skins and more importantly Sir Alex's. I do think that some of his teammates already do not trust him. Alex doesn't really care about that but once he starts undermining the captain of the ship, it's something the legendary manager will not take too kindly to. Ask Ruud Van Nistlerooy and Roy Keane about that. So I have been wondering, when is he going to start doing the Manny Ramirez? Will he start complaining about his knees being hurt in the middle of winter? Or going half-speed in important games? I do not know, but I can certainly see it.
So do I believe that this saga is completely over? Absolutely not, because C. Ronaldo still (in my opinion) has his heart set on going to Real Madrid and by all means he will do whatever he can to get there.

i agree with you man, there's no way real is really just going to leave ronaldo at man u without any type of fight. as soon as the season is over, madrid will be back at ferguson's door, telling him that he can either surrender ronaldo or they'll take him by force.
