Does anyone else have any to say about Ronaldo's transfer saga?

The possible transfer of Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United to Real Madrid has caused so much controversy that it has sparked statements from some of the most powerful and famous men in football.

This potential epic transfer started all the way back to May 16th; when Ronaldo being interviewed by a Spanish TV channel hinted that he would wait until after the Champions League final before deciding his future. This off hand comment set tongues wagging that a move to Real Madrid might be on the cards. Real had already shown interest in the player earlier that year when Real Madrid coach Bernd Schuster described Ronaldo as "the best player in the world. However this all seem too extreme a rumour as the Portugal international signed a contract extension last year to keep him at Old Trafford until 2012.

After then the Real Madrid hierarchy continued the pressure of rumours and statements, so much so that Man Utd actually complained to FIFA about the vicious onslaught. At every turn Man Utd big wigs Ferguson and Gill vehemently denied that Ronaldo was for sale.

Then it went quiet and when stuff carms down in football can only expect one thing... Sepp Blatter. Blatter about the Ronaldo transfer insisted that players should be free to play where they choose. He also said that Football was the modern day version of slavery............. I know, but what else did you expect that plonker to say? Then Ronaldo goes and bloody agrees with him?!?!?!?!

Well that annoyed a lot of people, actually it annoyed to of the most prestigious footballers ever, Pele and Gordon Banks. In an interview Pele mocked Ronaldo by suggesting that he wasn't a slave because he willingly signed the extension to his contract and as a gentleman should honor the rest of it. Banks as well waded in by saying he couldn't understand why Ronaldo would want to move from the double winners Manchester United. Both Pele and Banks laughed at the fact that a slave could earn £100,000 plus a week.

Personally I think the whole situation is hilarious and what ever happens someone will end up with a massive egg on their face!
