Players care for money and trophies. Give them those two and they will care to play for you. Do they need to love the club? Who the feck cares? I will rather have a merc in midfield who actually knows how to play football than Mctominay who is "red through and through".

There’s definitely photos of him in the kit?
Anyway, surely he starts tomorrow. I can’t see us going with eriksen as a false 9 again.
Is sentimentality a thing with English clubs or just Manchester United because it is quite strong with this club/ We hold on to every last reminder of what we once were no matter how useless that strategy is. Madrid moves on the next day after winning a trophy. We hate the use/discard approach but Pep has used it to so much success at City and look at them. Fresh and firing season in season out. I think members of the board at United think the ways fans think too. Holding on to every bit of nostalgia they can. We still play the likes of De Gea and keep the likes of Jones on our books just as reminders of our last title win.
we are not driven by success like City/Madrid, and the players have no fear of authority. It all comes from the top of the club
Are you new around here?
Dunno I think the legacy of fergie and the 92 generation has meant that we are more resistant to change than real Madrid and bayern. City are well run but they have infinite money as well. Of course we have spent tons of money we just keep being shit anyway.
Uh... that's exactly what he wants right?
Club: We'll terminate your contract!
Ronaldo: Oh no! Anyway...
Damage is done. Its obvious he is poison in the dressing room. Utd should have been stronger here and terminated his contract weeks ago
Okay, just do it. Don't threaten him with something he wants
They have to let him go. Can’t make him be part of this shit in the last year or two of his career
Uh... that's exactly what he wants right?
Club: We'll terminate your contract!
Ronaldo: Oh no! Anyway...
If anything, the club should threaten to trigger his extension.
That’ll learn him! Anyway, please just get rid. Should have been done weeks ago.Uh... that's exactly what he wants right?

Ronaldo: Oh no! Anyway...
A perfect example of us fecking up this summer. It was a tap in, there for us to just get rid of him early and move on with a rebuild. Send a message. Instead... Here we are.
Hopefully doing it late is better than not doing it at all, but i have no idea at this point. The importance of sending a strong message early is huge. Timing is huge. And we've completely fecked the timing for everything at this point. Useless cnuts.
Now seeing reports that the Glazers personally intervened in the Ronaldo thing to block his exit. Of fecking course. Why do these idiots keep getting involved in shit they know nothing about??

He can now go to Chelsea. Sure he's loving this news.
Oh...?
Had a bit of a bust up with McClaren after last game didn’t he?
Didnt Hag say it was BS that Ronaldo wanted to leave ?
I honestly can’t wait for the Ronaldo circus to finally leave town. He’s done nothing but cause a major distraction, one ETH could have done without given the size of the job in the first place. Just go and take all your fanboys with you.
No want wants him though so maybe he wouldn’t welcome a termination…
Anyway, terminate his contract and part ways. Never should've returned.
I think that's the idea. We're pushing him and Mendes into a corner now which makes a change.
The Glazers only care about revenue and sponsorship. That's why they want to keep Ronaldo at all costs and why we had to put up with Pogba for so long.
They're parasites.
Please just get fecking rid of him. Should have been done a month ago.
Please do it.
He could model jocks full time.
Clubs will take him on a free surely?
Or we play somebody else as CF and put him on a holiday like Arsenal did to Auba
No, they won't.
We are already threadbare and it seems unlikely any top talent will A. Want to join us and B. Want to join us this late in the window.
We'll sign a bang avarage squad player and we'll have to accept that's our level now.
Setting the narrative that it's his fault for being unprofessional etc.
Interesting. The club definitely wants him out IMO.
Whilst we should have gotten rid of him a few weeks ago when the news broke, it's still not too late. Should never ever have brought him back in the first place.....nice one Fergie.
However I don't think you can cancel contracts if a player has an attitude issue, see Martial, Winston Bogarte and many others for example. Unless of course it's a mutual cancellation, then it's not exactly a threat.
Would be funny if it was mutually cancelled and he was without a club until January when some chinese club offer him a contract.

The idea that he wouldn't find a club is ludicrous of course. In the end he'd lower his wage demands and probably end up at Sporting. They were apparently interested in a loan, so they'd take him on a free. He cares more about his Champions League goals record than money or anything else.
Agreed on both counts. Made little or no sense in him coming back.
Brief splash of nostalgia and he’ll always score goals but it was always obvious it wasn’t going to work.
Wish they would terminate a lot of contracts. Starting with their own the useless cnuts.
Bit harsh on Bogarte to be fair. By all accounts, he was a model professional who fulfilled all his contractual obligations to the letter: showed up for training every day, put in the work, and made himself available for selection.
Not his fault the club didn't want him and nobody else was willing to pay the same wages.
