See what gary nevile said about christiano ronaldo return to england

Gary Neville has cautioned Manchester United not
to sign Real Madrid’s Cristiano Ronaldo, instead
urging his former club to move for team-mate
Gareth Bale.
United manager Louis van Gaal is reportedly
interested in bringing one of the Real attackers to
Old Trafford next off-season.
Ronaldo left the Premier League for Spain in 2009
for a then-world record £80million fee before Bale
smashed that figure four years later.
Retired defender Neville is hesitant for United to
make a move for Ronaldo and doubts whether the
Portuguese forward’s return would be a success.
“I am not sure it is such a good thing for Cristiano
to come back,” Neville told The Mirror.
“I’d prefer us to get Gareth Bale and that’s no
disrespect to Cristiano who I think is possibly the
biggest talent I have ever played with – not the
best player I ever played with – but the biggest
talent.
“He is an amazing player and what he did for two
years at United was out of this world and it was a
privilege to be part of it.
“But the idea of coming back as his swansong – it
won’t be the same for him as it was before.”
He added: “He does like warm weather. He likes
the sun and we know that from when he was here.
That’s not a criticism of him, he was just used to
that.
“It will not be the same for him as it was before but
it won’t be the same for us and I am not sure.
“It would be about emotion. And I am not sure
emotion and sport go together really in that way.”
