Ronaldo named player of the year





Ronaldo hopes he can keep on improving


Manchester United winger Cristiano Ronaldo has been named as the Professional Footballers' Association player of the year.
The 23-year-old wins the award for the second successive season after another outstanding campaign that has seen him score 38 goals in all competitions.
"I feel very happy. It is a great moment, it is an honour, a pleasure," said the Portuguese star.
Arsenal midfielder Cesc Fabregas picked up the young player of the year award.

I feel very good but it is not just my award, my team-mates have helped me a lot this season

Ronaldo beat off competition from Liverpool duo Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard, 20-year-old Fabregas and Gunners team-mate Emmanuel Adebayor and Portsmouth goalkeeper David James.
The Portugal international was also in the running to scoop the young player of the year award, a feat he achieved last year, but was pipped to the prize by Spain star Fabregas.
Torres, Micah Richards, Gabriel Agbonlahor and Ashley Young were the other nominees.
Ronaldo did not attend the event, as he is busy preparing for Man Utd's Champions League semi-final second leg clash with Barcelona on Tuesday night, but was presented with the award by United manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
"When you work all season to play good, to do something for the team, and then at the end of the season the PFA give you this award, it is a great motivation to carry on like that, to work more and get better," said Ronaldo.
"I feel very good but it is not just my award, my team-mates have helped me a lot this season.
"They give me good passes to score goals - and I score - but it is a good moment for me."
Ronaldo revealed he voted for Arsenal striker Adebayor, but believes the right man walked away with the award.

606: DEBATE

No surprise to see Manchester United's talismanic figure scooping the award, fully deserved



Sir Rooney


"I voted for Adebayor because I think he has had a great season as well," he said.
"But you have many players who have had a good season - Torres, Fabregas, many players. But I think I deserve to win!"
Of his award, Fabregas said: "I'm very proud. It's a very prestigious trophy.
"Football is a collective game and you prefer to win trophies with team-mates but it's always nice to have this type of award.
"I dedicate it to my team-mates because without them I would not have won."
BBC broadcaster and former England and Blackpool full-back Jimmy Armfield received the merit award for his services to the game.

:lol:

Yes. You are.

And your naughty words are not very nice. Say sorry. It's a valid point. Anyone who randomly picks huge - and here is the key word - irrelevent - news paper articles about Man Utd/Celtic/the good old days & posts them up here will put themselves up for ridicule.

Why not respond with a no, the reason I support 12 football teams is and engage on the subject?

One must wonder the collective mentality of you two people, it beggars belief some of the absolute tripe you post on here thinking it's somehow funny and witty, how very sad and pathetic, smacks of insecurity i think.

Suggestion here. Some people take the mick as some of the things you do and say put you up for a bit of mick taking. For instance posting up that article.

But then you do not justify your self - for instance by explaining why you feel posting all the big articles is necessary & how (perhaps) your support for United is 30 years old & reasoning why it runs parallel with Celtic support.

Instead you just use words like 'sad' and 'immature' - that mean nothing & then fly right off the handle at poor JJinit for questioning your motivations.

Just a thought...but who am I?

I rest my case, this post says it all about the mentality you have... enough said.
 
roll on the end of the season. A Man Utd and Celtic Title double... might have some coins on it. just to jinx it up.
