Apparently Rooney and Ronaldo are getting along just fine:

These player feuds tend to be more built up in the fans' minds and the tabloid press. Rooney and Ronaldo are both prefessional football players who make a lot of money playing for Man Utd so I imagine by next autumn they'll be cordial to one another, if Ronaldo doesn't get transferred.

Well, to (mis)quote Mandy Rice Davis, 'They would say that, wouldn't they'.

Actually, I doubt there will be the kind of animosity I've seen suggested in the press, but I seriously doubt they'll be the best of buddies either.

Well, Cristiano Ronaldo has already expressed a desire to play in Real Madrid. I can only imagine what an attack made up by Cristiano Ronaldo and Robinho will be like... unless Robinho takes up Zidane's spot in the midfield.

I'll be interested to see if there are any reactions from other members of the England squad...

If I were Ronaldo, I wouldn't want to be on the wrong end of a tackle from a disgruntled John Terry or Steven Gerrard...

Then again, that implies they'll get within 5 feet of him without him throwing himself to the floor. (I should point out that I realise he didn't do too much of this in the world cup, but for Utd, it's his second favourite move, just behind the stepover)

or a Sol Campbell "cruncher"...
