Ronaldo is the only "Wenger almost signed him" story that doesn't bother me. Wenger doesn't like divas or overly selfish players. Ronaldo's ambition and selfishness would have put them on a collision course sooner or later, especially as Arsenal was still the Henry empire until 2007.
Even at Utd, Ronaldo didn't want to stay a single second longer than he had to. SAF did not allow him to leave until the end of 08/09; he wanted to go to Real at least 2 years before then. During this time, Utd had 3x PLs back to back and a CL. And Ronaldo still wanted to leave.
