The first red flag about his signing was when Ole claimed he see him now as purely a no. 9.
Ronaldo during his whole career excelled while playing with a hard-working forward e.g. Rooney and Benzema. The only one who fits this description at the club is an injury-prone Cavani who still lacks in the link-up play department. If you want to play him with Ronaldo though, you'll need to sacrifice three of Sancho, Greenwood, Martial, and Rashford every game which is impossible.
We shot ourselves in the foot with this signing and there's basically no way to get Ronaldo to perform relatively at his best while making the team better and keeping the other players happy.
