    While Yanited have been shit....

    Sancho - flopped
    Rashford - utter dross for 3 years
    Cavani - past it crock
    Greenwood - lol

    Ronaldo has 21 goals aged 37, without him they would be midtable. Unfair to blame him for their woes when they havent won a single game without him this term.

    Defence and Mudfield need looking at before the finger of blame pointed at Ronaldo.

    Agree with most of that. Though Sancho looks like he’s improving and I think he’s one who could flourish under Ten Hag. I’d imagine Ronaldo has been taken aback by how much United have slipped since he was there previously. Unless they transform and re-establish principles needed for a top club, they’ll continue to go backwards. I think they might finally be waking up, but the challenge for Ten Hag - or one of many - is how you square the inclusion of Ronaldo in a modern, high pressing, high intensity premiership side. By all accounts, Ajax are akin to City and Liverpool in terms of work rate and intensity. You simply can’t play Ronaldo in that sort of system. It wouldn’t surprise me if he went back to Sporting Lisbon this summer.

    Also, RIP. His newborn twin son died at birth a few days ago. Puts football into perspective.

    Anyone think he regreta not joining City??? And City regret not pushing that little bit more to make it happen???

    Premier League title would now be won and yoid also think a Champions League final. He would almost certainly have been the difference. Be on for a Balon Dor too.

    No you won't. Man U don't play their last game, against Palace, until Sunday 22nd.

    Were Manchester City interested at the time, if they were I'm with you a player with his experience could have made that difference and hardly going to break the bank

    Yes. He was on his way and then Sir Taggart intervened.

    Close enough....good call on your behalf.
    Plus the added bonus that if he doesn't get another goal....Burns Unit gets another tenner.
    Winner.
