Thing is he is a guaranteed starter, when Cavani is unreliable, Marcus is shocking and Greenwood a convict..I think it sholuld be made clear to him he's not a guaranteed starter.

This isn’t a thread for sense, Relevated.Scores hattrick against tottenham and has a good game in the CL:
'he needs to be told hes not a starter'

We should do what Roy Keane said on Sunday and surround him with talent, not force him to play every minute..Yes we should guarantee him every minute since he has five Ballon and five CL.
Sense.

Nonononono! We cannot build a team around a 37 year old. It's wrong on all possible levels.We should do what Roy Keane said on Sunday and surround him with talent, not force him to play every minute..

More tasty Ronaldo stats. Worst goals to xg ratio in the league actually

Another comparison that makes you think:
Ronaldo: 1 freekick goal in 72 direct freekicks (1,4%) in league games since the start of the 17/18 season
Juninho: 44 freekick goals in 100 direct freekicks (44%) for Lyon.......
Considering the dross in the team..particularly attack, who shouldn’t he be guaranteed to start over?I think it sholuld be made clear to him he's not a guaranteed starter.
But he won five awards and five trophies. And he scored a hat trick. AND he had a really good game the other day.
I think the hat trick against Spurs proves your theory wrongForce him ? He demands to play every minute. Throws strops when subbed, FFS. He doesn’t understand that he doesn’t have it in him anymore due to his massive ego.
No one’s saying build a team around him, but we need more quality in attack that actually contributes.Nonononono! We cannot build a team around a 37 year old. It's wrong on all possible levels.

Proves that there is no one else contributing as I said in my previous post, do keep up..Yes and what about the previous two months in which he’s scored four goals total including that hat trick ? What does that prove ?
What does the other 11 games he's played in 2022 prove to you (1 goal against Brighton, 0 assists and still lowest in the league in pressing numbers)?I think the hat trick against Spurs proves your theory wrong
I'm not going to even bother to check this stat online to call utter BS.Juninho: 44 freekick goals in 100 direct freekicks (44%) for Lyon.......

A striker takes shots, shoot him!What does the other 11 games he's played in 2022 prove to you (1 goal against Brighton, 0 assists and still lowest in the league in pressing numbers)?
We are constantly losing terain to our closest competitors.
If game deciding hattricks was his trade week in and week out for us, no one would have any complaints, even if our football wasn't the best. That is not the case though. In 2 out of 3 games he's the most wasteful forward in the league and he takes too much focus in our attack. Against Spurs, a game we didn't play well in, he took 8 of the 10 shots.....
Bruno has also missed sitters and Sancho skyed it against Atletico and don’t even talk about Rashford’s finishing lately.He scored a hat trick but has still missed more open goals than he’s netted in the past two months plus of 2022.
A few of those were really costly as well.

No doubt he wasn’t in the best form it happens, but combined with the rest of the team it just makes it look worse.
I think we need another quality striker, I like the look of Victor Osimhen whenever I seen him but he’ll cost a lot of money.True but we’re talking about Ronaldo. The bloke who is on massive wages and expects to start every match at CF despite the fact that neither his body nor his overall play are up to the task anymore.
As @sullydnl said, we are in trouble if he is leading the line for us next season. No matter how much we strengthen in other areas.

But, who are we kidding we need at the very least 4-5 first teamers and the Glazers aren’t going to finance that, it’s why I fear the Ronaldo name will carry them on underspending, when we all know it won’t work without help.
Yeah Nkunku would be a good choice as well, someone that can support Ronaldo in the short term with a vision of being the main man in the future.Nkunku the dream for me. Does it all and can play across the front line or even in place of Bruno.
This summer will either be the beginning of the first proper rebuild or we will see things unravel like never before as the rot has well and truly set in thanks to years of incompetence.
You're leaving with the club with too much to do in one summer. Greenwood, Pogba, Lingard, Cavani all out for nothing. Ronaldo in this scenario out for mere compensation. United also need at least one CM desperately.Ronaldo left Juvenths as late as possible. He left them to die with Morata as their only striker (they brought Kean on the last day of transfer window). If he wants to leave - he'll leave. Shouldn't count on him and start planning ahead with 2 NEW young strikers.
Thing is he is a guaranteed starter, when Cavani is unreliable, Marcus is shocking and Greenwood a convict..
I am not talking about this season. I am talking about the next one. The new manager shouldn't be sadled with the idea that Ronnie must always play. He should be given the freedom and authority to make that decision himself, free of any pressure. That can only be achieved if Ronaldo's expectations are managed.Considering the dross in the team..particularly attack, who shouldn’t he be guaranteed to start over?

I think we need to be realistic
Why bother calling something BS without even bothering to check? How can that in any way contribute to a healthy debate or discussion?I'm not going to even bother to check this stat online to call utter BS.
That’s fair enough. I agreeI am not talking about this season. I am talking about the next one. The new manager shouldn't be sadled with the idea that Ronnie must always play.

His xG has actually been quite good: best in the league except for Liverpool-players.What about all the gilt edged chances he's missed in that time? By my last check he's still the player with the second most shots at goal in the PL after Salah. His Xg in the league has been poor
Weird how being available to play almost every game is considered to be a bad thing on here. Also weird how wanting to play every game is a bad thing. Thank God we don't have that problem with the rest of our forwards!True but we’re talking about Ronaldo.

It's his goals vs. xG that is shocking - His finishing has been extremely bad the last 4 months with the exceptions of the Spurs game and his wondergoal against Brighton.
Do you really believe our other attacking players and especially the young ones are happy to spend most of their developing or "going into their prime" years on the bench? That's obviously one of the bigger problems with signing a 36 year old who demands to play when fit who is only going to get worse with time..... If you don't see why this is a problem, then good luck to you.Weird how being available to play almost every game is considered to be a bad thing on here. Also weird how wanting to play every game is a bad thing. Thank God we don't have that problem with the rest of our forwards!
We should be sure to find more players this summer who really aren't bothered whether they play or not, so long as they get paid. That would be a big improvement.
