I'd go further and say that overall he's a handicap. His individual numbers were impressive all right, but after bringing him in (with all that fanfare) they went backwards. It's still a team game and the net effect of adding him to that team was a negative one. Unless you're going to get rid of literally every other player in that squad (and, whether or not that would be deserved, it's not remotely practical) the mix isn't right.
And yet reports this morning are suggesting that ten Hag has said he wants Ronaldo to stay. The whole thing is a gift that keeps on giving.
And you know this for sure...? ...?
The impression you get is that Ronaldo is only interested in himself. Any decent new manager who really wants to rebuild the club is not gonna want to do so around him.
For United to push on (obviously I really, really hope that they don't, ever), they need to show some humility and accept the work that needs to be done. Does Ronaldo really seem likely to do that?

From what I read Darwin was not interested in Man U and so they could offer what they want, he wouldn’t go.
Given preseason hasn’t started quite yet and there is two more months of the window it isn’t too late to sign someone, far from it. The thing here is that any club they approach will be rubbing their hands knowing United are desperate.
Even worse for them is that no top drawer player is going to go to them now. It’s like us ten years ago, no guarantee of challenging for silverware and qualification for CL is patchy
StevieM knows fuck all, but its still a whole load more than Donavan
He may know in your word "whole load more than Donavan" But He, and anyone else Do not know everything...
I asked a question "With Chelsea close to a deal for Sterling I wonder if we could see City signing Neymar as FSG are willing to let him go, and he is happy to leave..?" and it amazes me that people take it as me stating as fact that City want to sign Neymar..
I merely stated that they could try.
They have all but sold Sterling and maybe Pep could feel that buying Neymar would be a good fit for City and could be that piece he needs to win a CL.
Chelsea are strengthen, We have strengthen so why not City..?
I hope the horrible injury prone leech goes to City - they’re made for each other.
He can continue to enjoy failure in the Champions League while acting like a fanny in Manchester.
I didn’t realize that FSG owned Neymar. If so, why isn’t the cunt playing for us?
Hi
Just wondering, have any of tou heard of any rumours of us signing a midfielder (proper one, not a hybrid, or young without experience type) in the last 48 hours or so ? Maybe you have a friend that works for the club or you are a local who is able to get top secret info.
Any help to calm my worries ahead of next season is much appreciated.

That’s a pretty perfect analogy to be honest. FSG and Klopp are doing sabermetrics; United for the last 10 years have been doing the old-fashioned thing of throwing money at biggest names they could attract. Everyone can judge the results for themselves.

As if anyone in Portugal could pay his wages !
No team challenging for the CL would take him ... the only exception being Bayern perhaps, and even then.
He said he wants a CL team ... maybe he means one from Croatia or Austria.
Do they have a Central League in the States?
Odds on United buying Tammy, and Ronaldo going for a cushy reunion with jose
I wouldn't want him playing for us
Ronaldo could step into management when Jose has his 2nd season meltdown and falls out with everyone - just in time to spend a year falling out with everyone in Paris.
"Grauniad" Manchester correspondent saying this morning that Guardiola himself decided aqainst signing Ronaldo. Wasn't the story at the time that they were outbid?
Seems a bit far fetched.
Dunno you know. Italian clubs love selling high and buying cheap
What?
I interpret “if the right offer is made” thing as admission that so far no one came close to offering what Ronaldo would need to leave, so he’s trying to signal his availability without completely burning the bridges in Manchester. More likely than not, it will end in an embarrassing U-turn where Ronaldo says “Ten Hag’s coaching methods convinced him” to stay.
Indeed, and a statement that says he has the full belief in the project that ten Hag is starting.
They've already said its non negotiable that he doesnt travel for pre season.
Seriously? So much for “believing in the project.” Lovely.
