[Football] Could Potter control CR7?

[Official Old Man]

SSN talking this morning (Sun 20th) about CR7 going to Chelsea and whether Potter would be able to control him. My first thoughts were since when did CR7 play for Brighton but then thought a bit deeper about this. Ronaldo would want to be bigger than the club and all his team mates, something Potter didn't allow at Brighton. So could GP allow CR7 into his squad and play him when needed. Is GP stronger than CR7 and dictate the playing terms or would CR7 tell GP he WILL play or he sulks?

would be a nice test of Potter vs Boehly, i dont think Ronaldo is a Potter type of player at all and he wouldnt want him in the squad.

 

[zefarelly]

It would be quite funny to watch the total melt down of the club from within. Make it happen.

 

[Pavilionaire]

If Ronaldo ends up Chelsea then Potter will be lucky to still be in post by the end of this eason.

 

[Bakero]

It'd be fun to see how Ronaldo gets on at Lwb .

 

[dazzer6666]

Toxic combination - CR& is incapable (and probably unwilling) of playing Potterball, and Glow-up wouldn't be able to manage CR7's ego. Make it happen Todd.

Does he need to be controlled?

N.B actually you’re right it’s gonna be a shit storm and one I endorse

Corrected for you.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Probably bigger egos than CR7 already at Chelsea

 

[KZNSeagull]

The real question is will CR7 play left wing back? I think we know the answer to that already

 

[GT49er]

I can imagine Potter refusing point blank to have CR7 in his squad. Big battle between Potter and Boehly(sp?) - I think though that Boehly learns fast, and has learned a lot since taking over at Chelsea. Could be a thrilling melt down, but I doubt it will happen.

 

[Swansman]

I don't think any manager in the PL, or possibly elsewhere in the big leagues either, could or even wants to try to deal with Cristiano Ronaldo. The exception might be Mourinho as they're equally fucktarded. Ronaldo to Roma in January seems likely.

 

[OzMike]

Won't happen and he won't be able to control him anyway.
Show pony.

 

[Justice]

A player who should of retired by now will leave the game not remembered as one of the greats more as a whiny backstabbing moaner. He has some points about Manure yet they all should of been kept in house.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

CR7 is well past his best nowadays, his pace is all but gone.

Not sure he would replace Trossard in our team to be honest.

 

[AmexRuislip]

Could you imagine a joint
GP /CR7 production of Swan Lake.
Coming to a 4G pitch near you.

 

[A1X]

LOL no

 

[Lenny Rider]

One of Potter’s traits/strengths was that he basically outed all the Billy Big Bollocks/Trouble makers out of the Albion dressing room in his time Andone, Knockheart, Connolly, Duffy Locadia , CR7 is a different animal, they could make it PPV.

 

[METALMICKY]

It would be quite funny to watch the total melt down of the club from within. Make it happen.

Very much this! Let's hope the dumb Yank thinks signing Ronaldo would be a real crowd pleaser

 

[Gabbafella]

I really hope this happens because it will create all kinds of shit for Chelsea and Potter, plus the fans will surely go into meltdown when the wheels come off even more.
Ronaldo is a bellend of the highest order, the U-boat captain won't be able to control him, the dressing room will be lost and the hipsters contract will be terminated.
