Ronaldo

[Fulham Broadway 16,915]

From 'Who Ate All The Pies'

Remember how excited Manchester United fans were when they heard the news they'd signed Ronaldo. Giddy MU enthusiasts litterally skipped and danced around their mock-tudor Essex homes, thinking they'd signed the buck toothed Brazilian legend. Luckily for them, it turned out to be the other, not so famous, Cristiano Ronaldo, which confused a few fat men in replica shirts for a couple of hours.Anyway the original aforementioned buck toothed wizard Ronaldo (star of France '98 and The Simpsons) has seen his career spiral out of control. He's now unwanted by AC Milan, who reportedly are looking to offload him for free, or swap him for some other over paid misfiring striker like Sheva. Cue Chelsea.

Now, I'm not saying Ronaldo is the answer to Chelsea's strike problems, but in the short term, could he do a solid job in a blue shirt ? With Drogba out, Sheva and Kalou are getting out muscled by defenders. A big (free) bruiser, with the potential to be brilliant again, could be the answer. At least to get him through to the end of the African Cup of Nations when Drogba will return.

Never mind could he ''do a solid job in a blue shirt'' question is could he fit in a blue shirt, and there are other options...

Well put it this way, with the difficulty in finding top class strikers in January we could do a hell of alot worse that sign him on a free in January................

At least the burger sales would go up

If its a free then why not......cant be any worse than our current options up front.

Especially as January is a very very tough time to sign players. Would it really be a big deal to bring him over on a free and see if he can work with us?

Worth a shot at least.

Its a risk worth taking. Like all world class players, he still has the skills even if he's off the pace a bit, but having someone who can get you a goal out of nothing can make all the difference.

If it is on a free, or maybe a couple of million, it can hardly be the worst option. I'd give it a go.

i spose we could give him a go if we got him on a free but im not really to keen on the idea i think he will just be a flop

[Badboy 1,526]

He can still do this so yes please

[Steve 10,227]

impressive if we do get him lets hope he does that for us
