#2 Who’s your sculptor?

An astonishing likeness...not.

For a man so vain, it is inconceivable that there is any truth behind his assertion that he is happy with the statues made of him.

The one that was erected outside his museum was bad enough, but that was handsomely topped by the monstrous effort that was unveiled at the airport in Madeira that has been named in his honour.

Somehow, the sculptor has managed to make the bronze look even worse than Ronaldo did as a spotty teen. Some achievement that.

His polished image has taken a battering on social and mainstream media, and it wouldn’t be a surprise if the bust was changed in due course. One can’t imagine that the fun everyone is having at the player’s expense will be acceptable to him or his consultants.

That either design ever made it past the initial stages is astonishing in itself!
