Freak
Born a freak always a freak.
Sensational performance. Against a very good team as well. Viva Ronaldo! Some of our fans can get fecked
I think you've picked it up wrong, the tweeter has phrased it badly, but what he's saying is that Ronaldo's goals have been to go ahead or equalise, or the goal that's ended up being the difference between the two sides. Clumsily phrased but he means that none of his goals have been stat Padders, the 4th and 5th goals in a 5-0 win and the like
This. The MLS is not a cake walk. Gerrard was in decent shape when he signed for Galaxy and he struggled against younger players in this league.
Nani has had his struggles at Orlando and looks nothing special either. Hugain similary has been nothing special either at Inter Miami. Ronaldo is finished and the sooner he realizes this the better because it's going to end up being embarrassing for him
Ronaldo's goals have been the highlight of the season. Seeing a legend back at United has been a pleasure. Without him we're just middling along anyway, so I'll always be happy we brought him back.
He should've gone there instead. I'm sure you'd have enjoyed watching him help them to another league title and deep CL run
We're fine with that, it would seem he's fine with that if you look at his comments when he was at Juventus, however United don't have a single decent CF right now so Ronnie starts fit or notGood performance, but you should still get rid if you can unless he accepts being a starter only in the big matches and an impact sub for the rest.
Ah lads, so much egg on so many faces
Yep. When we end the season in 6th and without a trophy at least we can all come to the Ronaldo thread and celebrate his incredible season, and be thankful that he chose to grace our club with his presence.Ah lads, so much egg on so many faces
So it’s Ronaldo’s fault we finish 6th?!?!Yep. When we end the season in 6th and without a trophy at least we can all come to the Ronaldo thread and celebrate his incredible season, and be thankful that he chose to grace our club with his presence.
Some definitely willYep. When we end the season in 6th and without a trophy at least we can all come to the Ronaldo thread and celebrate his incredible season, and be thankful that he chose to grace our club with his presence.
Not sure about this. In the last month or two we crashed out of the FA cup and lost monumental ground in the top 4 race in games where poor finishing was directly detrimental to every result. We could have done with this Ronaldo when there was still a season to salvage. He is dragging us upwards as much as his previous form was dragging us downwards. The team has actually been carrying Ronaldo since Rangnick got here. He, Bruno and Rashford.A 37 years old is the reason we are still in the UCL and in the fight for the Top3-4.
Weird that you’re bitter one of our players scored a hat trick.Some definitely will
You going to give Harry Kane similar or more abuse than Ronaldo then yeah?Not sure about this.

Ah come on now. He was always going to roll back the years and pull out an occasional performance like that. He’s a phenomenal footballer, even though he is 37 years old.
The problem we have is he can’t be expected to play that well every week, never mind twice a week. But he expects to play every match and if he doesn’t get picked we’ll get the drama there was around the City game. Turns out the rest did him the power of good. Hopefully he realises this and is willing to be more of a bit part player. Because that’ll going to be the only way to get the best out of him from here on.
Who? What the hell do I care about Kane. Spurs can crash and burn for all I care. Why would that even be relevant here? At least use a name who actually plays for us.You going to give Harry Kane similar or more abuse than Ronaldo then yeah?
1 in 2 are great stats for any striker.10/10 performance yesterday but that only partially masks a poor season by his standards in the PL. His record is about 1 in 2 for the season (good for an average PL striker) but if you look at his non penalty goals against his expected goals he‘s in the 29th percentile so among the worse finishers in the league this season.

Compare that to last season for Juventus where he’s in the 77th percentile and the decline is stark.

Lets hope he can find the old Ronaldo again for the CL games.
Basically the exact same comparison as for why you are bashing Ronaldo, but it’s okay I understand you probably don’t watch much football.Who? What the hell do I care about Kane. Spurs can crash and burn for all I care. Why would that even be relevant here? At least use a name who actually plays for us.
I understand that Ronaldo hasn't been as good as he been at other times during his career, but I really don't understand the absolute hate this guy gets from our own fans.
He has always been our player. Even after he left.
He is playing in the worst UTD team in living memory with mentally weak players and owners who have sucked so much spirit out of the club. He has been over played at 37 because there are no other options!
Yet only Mohamed Salah has scored more than his 12 Premier League goals and no United player has scored more than half his overall total of 18 in all competitions.
The only reason that we are in the Champions League is because of him.
He has given us the only moments of light in a desperately dark season and there have been loads of them.
Why so much constant hate?
You have people in this very thread, posting 15 negative posts a day and hounding anyone out that dares say anything positive about Ronaldo, I’d say it’s not far off.Where are you seeing hate? Any examples? I’ve seen nothing even remotely hateful posted about him. Lots of opinions that he was a bad signing, who creates more problems than he solves. That’s not the same thing as hate. Not even close to it.
1 in 2 are great stats for any striker.
But, you’re measuring him on a scale of 60 goals a season, which coincidentally he set, at an age of 37, it’s totally unrealistic standards to set for someone.Not really. Ronaldo used to be a 1 in 1 player. That’s great in the modern game. Salah has 20 in 26 this season. That’s great. Harry Kane is nearly at 1 in 2 now but no one would argue that he’s had a great season. Like Ronaldo he’s had his moments but has ultimately been disappointing.
Ronaldo‘s (and Kane’s) non-penalty goals - npxG shows how much under their own standards they’ve been.

Underrated view.I kept on having a feeling that ronaldo would play better without Bruno, and today was just the case
I myself am guilty of putting out word salads from time to time i was just taken back by a behemoth of that size so made a little joke about it.
Anyway I do agree with some your points and disagree with others so obviously it's a decent post to add to the discussion but brevity is a virtue so cutting some of that length here and there does help with the text comprehension and makes it so that main points come out better.
Anyway it's not my prerogative to tell you how to write your posts but good luck anyways!
