Road to Rome: Oh that boy!

We had Van the Man till this kid turned up and turned out for us and turned 'em inside out. He is the first, second and third best player in the World. The right wing is gonna be United's most potent goal scoring area.
My (and every Utd fan's) craving/privilege etc.. Ron the Man

ROme will be the battle field to decide who between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi has been teh best player of the season.They'll rarely come in contact during the course of the match but this match has already been pegged as Ron vs Messi.
Ronaldo's season started late due to a surgery during the off season. He took his time to recover and hit good form only after new year. He simply hasn't been in his element this season. He's a pale shadow of what he was last season. 'Cos of all these reasons, he's scored just 26 goals, hit just 2 40 yard stunners, scored jst about 5 scorching free kicks, has demoralised less than a dozen teams and he's a frontrunner for EPL's Golden Boot only by one solitary goal. Absolutely miserable season he's had. If the season continues to be as torturous as it has been, he'll score just 1 more goal in UCL along with a pitiful, solitary long-range free-kick ICBM.

Sylvinho'll won't have much on his plate apart from a couple dozen step overs, an equal number of trick flicks and half that number of sniper precision crosses. Ofcourse, the occasional long range missile and the run that'll leave him for dead will be there needless to say. Valdes won't have much to do cos when he hits it, it stays hit till a 'soft' landing at the back of the net.
Ron's had a fair share of criticsm comin his way for not performing aagisnt the big teams, this match presents the best opportunity to shut up the critics for good. And he'll love to do an encore of a similar night last year at the Luzhniki. Overall, United's The Man to pull out those magic moments.

Flip Side:
Theatrics! It's time he realised that the opposite team's allowed to tackle him. perhaps the term, 'Get on with the game' was coined with him in mind. Against a club of Barca's calibre, he needs to cut the crap and fight back if he's brought down. And if he's subbed out ( i hope to God he isn't) je needs to show a bit more respect to Fergie; Petulence has never been the Boss' flavour of the month.
But then, if he can deliver like he's done over the last two seasons, let him crib n cry n make faces for the cams; I'll take it any day.
Oh that boy Ronaldo!
The ball had one place to go!
Oh that boy Ronaldo!
