I thought that the unveiling ceremony for Cristiano Ronaldo at Real Madrid was a little overblown what with 80,000 fans packed into the stadium, a catwalk and speeches. It looked more like LiveAid than the press conference and photos of a player holding up the shirt of his new club that usually suffice.
However, overblown is a relative term and having seen the welcome Darius Vassell (really) recieved when arriving at his new Turkish club perhaps I was mistaken.
Ronaldo positively loves the attention (watch him coyly soak up the crowd's chants) whereas Vassell look positively frightened. He's probably realised that he's got quite a lot to live up to once he gets out onto the pitch, or thousand of fans are going are going to be bitterly disappointed.
