And by some margin.If we had functioning team, he would have been top scorer in the league.
He isn't really a Play maker per say (Obviously capable of it like that beautiful pass to mata) but has the intelligence to keep the ball rolling and not ball hug at all.One interesting stats, he got 74 pass (91.9% success rate) from last game, that’s very very high considering he plays as striker for us.
In comparison, City’s Jesus only got 34 pass (82%) from his recent game (4:0 vs Leeds). While Liverpool’s Jota only got 19 pass (68%) from most recent game (1:0 vs Southampton). Spurs’ Kane only got 27 pass (59.3%) in his recent game (3-1 vs Leicester).
By far the best playmaking CF in the league lately? Since some of his pass really create good goalscoring chances to his teammates too. I think ETH would absolutely love that for his possession football, if he stays.
So you’re not aware of Barcelona and Madrid trying to get him back to Spain? That’s what all the latest reports are saying.Where exactly do you people think he will leave to?
He's on a 600K a week contract. Who is going to match that?
He won't return to La Liga or Serie A.
Bayern or PSG?
Bayern couldn't afford his salary and United won't sell him to PSG after they scoop up Pogba. Not to mention Messi, Neymar et al - there is a clique - wouldn't want him there.
He has enhanced his legacy tremendously by performing at such a high level in the PL, at 37yo he could end up with a 20+ PL goal campaign.
It makes sense for him to stay another season and then leave for free if there is no UCL football/improvement.
Feels like it doesn’t it? He’s been the only positive this season. I’d be gutted if he left all over againIt's 2008 all over again, us all praying he's not leaving us.
Stop the count!Why oh why did the Messi Vs Ronaldo thread only get stopped when Messi stops performing
Barcelona? Madrid?So you’re not aware of Barcelona and Madrid trying to get him back to Spain? That’s what all the latest reports are saying.
Why won’t he return to La Liga? Because you think so? I’d be surprised if he didn’t end up back there. He could play into his 40’s there.
He was about 10 minutes away from joining City...Barcelona? Madrid?
Are you for real?
He'd go to Barca to ruin his legacy at Madrid?
Madrid could have signed him the past 2 seasons but they didn't. They have Mbappe/Benzema/Vinicius for their front three next season, where does Ronaldo fit?
No he won't! Because he will still be at Utd next season. I have faith. All Hail Ronnie, Viva Ronaldo!!!He was about 10 minutes away from joining City...
and Madrid haven't tied Mbappe up yet. Ronaldo would still get in both of those teams regardless.
He got all those touches and passes because he was barely in the middle. Felt like we weren't playing with a striker for most parts of the game.One interesting stats, he got 74 pass (91.9% success rate) from last game, that’s very very high considering he plays as striker for us.

But he is still our only CF isn’t he, and our top goalscorer too, so he is doing his primary job right. It’s just that he likes to drop back and involves more in build up play, which makes him probably the best “playmaking CF” in the league (lately).He got all those touches and passes because he was barely in the middle. Felt like we weren't playing with a striker for most parts of the game.
I see no reason why he can't operate at this level for another 3 or 4 years. With him more than anyone else, age is just a number. Would be idiotic of us to let him go this summer in my opinion.He's a freak, he has to stay - ETH would be bonkers to let that kind of talent go. Still world class, and clearly has years left in him.
He's still under contract for a year so i'm not sure what all the speculation is about. It's whether ETH wants him to stay, not if he wants to leave.
All the talk about him leaving is odd. Our only plus point of the season.
They're talking as if he is out of contract or something. He's still Ronaldo and has a decent value. Anybody wanting him would need to make an acceptable offer, this part seems to have been ignored.
