No morals at the Bernabeu- No means no
23 May 08 by Bill
Calculated it may be, but Fergie has blasted Real Madrid today saying they have no morals and reveals it is not just the Galacticos that are interested in Cristiano Ronaldo. Sir Alex has angrily accused the Real Madrid hierarchy of deliberately trying to unsettle the player.
In a press conference earlier today, Alex Ferguson hinted that Barcelona had also been in touch regarding the Portuguese winger’s availability and said:
“In terms of great clubs, clubs with great moral issues like Barcelona have far better moral issues than Real Madrid will ever have.
“We know Real Madrid are not the only club with an interest in Ronaldo but they are not saying so.
“Do you not think we’ve not had many interests from the big clubs in Europe about our best players? Of course. But they don’t get into the nonsense that they get into. And they’ve no moral issues at all. They think that they can ride roughshod over everyone but they won’t do it with us.”
Ferguson insisted Ronaldo was wanted at Old Trafford and he would do everything possible to keep him. Using Ruud van Nistelrooy and David Beckham as examples, Fergie pointed out “ we sold them because we wanted to”.

I hear Real Madrid are making way for Ronaldo by selling Robhino to Chelsea. Not sure how many times Fergie can say no, Ronnie wants to play in Spain and Spain want Ronnie. Surely it’s only a matter of time.
