If we have option to trigger extra year, woudlnt be surpirsed if morons pull it in middle of the season
 
In my opinion hes free to leave if he can find a club and if he cant then he will have to stay which is why ten haag refused to confirm ronaldo will definetely be here post window and why Ronaldo said the 2 weeks time stuff

The problem is that he completely undermines the new manager and doesn't fit his style of play at all.

We would be better off terminating his contract now and getting rid of his ego and the circus that follows him around. His best days are well and truly behind him, the cons far outweigh the pro's of keeping him here.

how do you know he undermines the manager? guess work, supposition, believing crap stories? no evidence for this whatsoever but hey Carrick and Rooney aren't here any more so let's blame Ronaldo

I would love to see him play PL and FA matches and be dropped in all European competitions. He's starting to get on my nerves.

That sounds like a best case scenario for him, second to leaving the club as soon as fecking possible? He's shit at what ten Hag does.

Based on what?

Everyone that wants to believe he was rejected by every club wants to find some way to narrate it that way.

Based on what? I just explained it. It is clear that Ronaldo wants to leave. It is clear that his manager is looking everywhere for him to go to. It is clear no one yet took the bite. There's enough smoke here and usually where there's smoke there's fire.

In the end of the day Ronaldo has pretty much requested a transfer, his agent is looking all over Europe to get a CL team to sign him - and no one has. That's facts and not rumours or assummptions. Facts. No one wants him.
 
This guy should go from Man Utd as fast as possible. Should have never came back. I think most of the toxicity in the club lately is because of him.. Not because he is a "bad" guy, but because he is just a terrible fit for a team that is developing. Totally ruined some of the chemistry that was happening in 2020/21 season.
 
I’m not convinced ETH will try to impose his pressing philosophy this first season. He doesn’t have the players for it, we can’t afford or at least we do t have the will to buy 10 new players (4 is a great start but I don’t see 6 more) this season.

We have no other proven goal scorer and there isn’t one in the market that’s there for the buying.
 
I'm not at all buying the reports of him destabilizing the group. If they can't get on his level, the group is the problem, not him. If anything, the kids should use him as an example. If you ask him to run, he will run. Man's not exactly known for his poor working/training ethic.
 
If he leaves will be like at Juve, on 31 August
He said he will speak on that day

No time to find replacements

your comment: Just because Ronaldo looks like he got a note telling him that his hair looks bad every time something goes against him on the pitch doesn't mean he's the only one who is angry and embarrassed. This BS that he's the one who really cares and the rest can't be bothered is so tiring, especially when the one who supposedly cares the most is the one trying his hardest to leave, because that's apparently what real winners do when things get tough.

Sorry but that comment about his hair is ridiculous and is why this barely deserves a proper reply. you give no names of anyone else who even seems to give a monkey's. I don't see a single other player who even looks like they have any passion and none can produce, right now, what Ronaldo has for the club.

and players are allowed to want to leave clubs. to question whether Ronaldo is a winner is beyond a joke

It was a harmless joke, although I should've known better considering your affection to Ronaldo.

You left out my question in my previous comment which is why I presume you copy-pasted instead of quoting me and you also changed the goal-post now to "none can produce, right now, what Ronaldo has for the club" which is something completely different to what I initially responded to which was - "To me, Ronaldo looks the only one angry at performances and embarrassed by them".

So if we're looking for anger and embarressment I think you should check youtube, there's both game highlights which show reactions to us conceding goals, missing chances, walking off the pitch etc and interviews with a ton of different players. I see a whole lot of anger and there's so much embarrassment in those clips that it'll last a lifetime, so to me it's clear as day that there's not a single player who isn't angry and embarrassed by our performances and I can't understand how someone who watches the games and has an interest in the club could not see that.
Except of course if you were part of Ronaldo's fanclub who is pushing this narrative that he's the only one who cares in an attempt to distance him from the shitshow so you can point the blame at literally everyone else.

Be interesting to see what Ten Hag says about Ronaldo to a direct question on MNF. "I don't know what he wants to achieve with that" referencing his Instagram post is all that has been teased in the YouTube/Tweet about it.

If we work as quickly as we seem to on Casemiro maybe we could!
Obviously if it's the De Jong pace, not so promising!

He also said "That's not what he's telling us" when Carragher said he wants to leave.

That's not how teams work in any dynamic, sport or otherwise. Even if you imagine a standard office environment, if someone at work is a prick, moaning all the time and creating a toxic atmosphere where everyone is awkward or intimidating around them. It's just terrible for the team morale, even if that guy does his job well individually himself.

I don't have any sympathy for the clowns who've been here before him and can't produce the goods. They answer to a higher power: the United fan base. It they can't cut it, the only way is out. Desperate times call for desperate measures.

As I thought. Being falsely linked to every club under the moon to claim rejection.

It's well reported and sourced that Mendes offered him around to Bayern, Barcelona, Chelsea, PSG, some other clubs and now even Dortmund, to universal rejection. Because noone will pay anywhere close to the 29m € net - yes, 29m € net - that he's getting from you.

ISs not well reported it’s just….reported. Sadly people believe every link and news article they see and seem to forget that the media tell more lies then truth to get clicks.

From the clubs you mentioned the only two that they’re seems to be a real link too, was Bayern and Chelsea.

Barcelona makes zero sense. Most likely made up media bs. PSG makes even WORSE sense, awful “report” and rumor.

Juve makes no sense, Milan clubs make no sense.

The list goes on. Their is clearly a narrative that the media wants to portray of Ronaldo being rejected by every club in Europe . Why? Because negative press is what people like to read.

I am sure the truth will come out very soon and the gullible folks will be in shock.

“Well reported.”

If his legacy and Champions League football are so important to him why doesn't he just take a 50% pay cut so more options open up for teams to sign him. He is almost a billionaire. Take a huge pay cut for a year, play European football, score more goals and be happy.

Ya if he really wants to go just lower your wages and feck off

The moment this guy leaves, the team will fly.

won’t say they will fly. But yes, it’ll be a better team. Ronaldo has become a problem this year. Last year he was banging goals, this year he’s made lots of noise for the wrong reasons.
 
But which club would take Ronaldo that he would want to play for, assuming that it's all about setting more goal scoring records in the CL? If he's on 350/week (because we missed out on the CL) I can't imagine he'd go any lower than 250/week.
 
I'm finding it hard that his salary is the problem.
He's almost 60 years old, he's desperate to improve his stats in the CL, he should be happy to play for free just to get those extra matches and goals.
If he's expecting £500k a week, he's going to be in for a big surprise...

This is pretty consistent with my thinking.

There is no way Casemiro hasn't spoke to Ronnie and Varane, and Fred, ahead of the move. The decision etc is very quick. I'm more of the view something bigger could happening at the club. The media as playing with emotions, inequalities of knowledge and fans desparate to latch onto. The drifting of negative emotions/sentoment towards specific players is sad, but interesting to see.

I'm looking forward to Ronnie scoring plenty of goals this season.

A 50% paycut takes him to £250K a week for a player that has been reported to be toxic.

That is a huge outlay. These B tier sides like Dortmund or Napoli or Lisbon couldn't afford that.

He's at his "toys out of the pram" stage of his career now. Ronaldo is more trouble than he's worth.

His legs will give away, Ibrahimovic is still going and they'll still store goals and be "great professionals" but they shouldn't be around the top clubs really.

Ronaldo should go to some Italian or French club and take a modest salary where he can still play CL. He can't really do it anymore IMO.

Great intelligent player but if the teams not creating he won't do anything to make the difference he will be stroppy and that's it.
 
Though I think Ronaldo is more drama than worth at this stage of his career and despite being a mega fan, had made peace with him leaving being the best move I am getting a bit worried if it's last minute and we do not have a striker.

Ideally this would have happened mid transfer season and we would have found a replacement. If tomorrow we sign someone upfront, anyone, I will be at more peace. It could be that we sign no one and Martial finds his magical form again and it's all good but we really need some numbers. I have no clue why we don't go for Belloti to at least have a backup.
