I don’t think people started hating Tevez until he left to be fair.
Heinze is probably next in line for hated players that were still at the club.

I didn’t hate him but I started to lose it a bit with Tevez after the celebration he did in one of his last games for us, against City at OT when he cupped his hands to his ears. But yeah I wouldn’t say I hated him, even after he left tbh, just wasn’t that bothered as I recall. More surprised that he’d rather play there than at United.
Why is it not gross misconduct?
Can you give examples? I haven’t noticed anything.
Why? You want him to carry on disrupting our season?
Di Maria, what a snake. Cut from the same cloth.
As long as he’s got a standard PL contract, I’m pretty sure it will be.
If we can cancel his contract and sack him without having to pay him off, which I very much hope is the case, I don’t see the point of suing him. I’m not sure the courts would like it either; they’d take the view that we’d received just recompense by being released from paying him and anything more would be vindictive. Unless we could somehow prove financial loss, such as sponsors’ deals being dependent on his continued employment.
I do appreciate that Ronaldo has removed the dilemma of whether to play him or not. Now we can just focus on replacing him. Rather this than the Pogba lies.
Why should they say anything else? It's to the point and all that's needed.
What do you want them to say? We're sorry Cristiano, please come back and we'll get rid of that nasty manager instead. How do you fancy being player/manager?
That was the response to being asked for examples.
Carry on then making yourself look a tit, no skin off my nose.
Don’t give them ideas. There’s a biggish and vocal minority who would love just that.
The state of this!
That's astounding if true. I always thought this was discussed with his advisors and they had something up their sleeve. He's gone full kamikaze and is completely out of control.
That as well.
Let alone an interview by a massive football star, try putting up a LinkedIn post writing absolute shite about your current organization, your immediate supervisor and hierarchy and owners.
See, if that gets you anywhere apart from a one-way ticket out of the door the next day.
People forget there was reports from the Athletic and ESPN last season about Ronaldo arranging meetings with a few senior players to confront ralf about tactics and that he threatened to leave in January if Execs where to hire Ralf on a permanent basis
''Insider Mark Ogden claims that the 37-year-old had 'made it clear by January' that he would quit if Rangnick was to stay as permanent manager.''
''Ronaldo sought talks with Rangnick over how playing two up front would benefit Manchester United''
The Athletic understands there have been talks on the subject behind the scenes, with Ronaldo expressing a view that a return to playing two up top would benefit him and the team overall.
Ronaldo attended a meeting with Rangnick after the home draw with Southampton on February 12 — when the mood around the club was tense following three successive 1-1s, including the FA Cup exit at home to Middlesbrough, of the Championship, on penalties.
Other senior players were there too, but Ronaldo spoke the most, especially on the idea of him having a strike partner.
Then there were murmerings this season of him not being impressing with ETH's pressing tactics
'' Cristiano Ronaldo is dismayed at stubborn Erik ten Hag's training and tactics with the Portuguese forward believing United would be better off playing a different way. ''

Seriously anyone who supports this cnut who think's he's bigger than the manager and club needs to GTFH with him

Well the youtube comments are mostly on Ronaldo side, not to mention Man Utd instagram page is also filled with #respect Ronaldo comment everywhere. There's no way we are going to win this thing on the internet, as we are up against biggest name in social media, with the biggest ever support too. Best we could hope for is to reach mutual agreement on termination of contract with Ronaldo, without any compensation. I am not sure if we can sue him for breach of contract, but if some clubs willing to take him in January, it might help us out too.
Indeed. Got a very soothing voice too. Too bad it's used to voice crappy opinions.
Oh no, he's going but we can negotiate a settlement without dragging it through the courts surely? I don't like him but we have to show a bit of decorum.
Nice title change. 
Tevez gave his all for us during that 2 year loan deal. I was even disappointed we did not sign him but went for berba.
This album has been on top of the box office for days now. Don't know if it can win the Grammys anyway!
This is the point people don't want to look at. When he plays, he limits others potentials as he wants to take all the glory. He scored 24 last season and the second highest goal scorer at the club scored less than 10. This season, we have scorers from all over the pitch. Football is a team sport. Exact reason he was dropped st Juventus that eventually meant he left jive.
We were so poor last season because we were carrying Ronaldo along.
Was unknown 25 years ago unless u are referring to Luis Ronaldo. Has been nowhere near the bpitw since 2018 and even prior to that he was considered the best only by his fanboys. You are probably one of them.
Becks had a huge following similar to Cristiano and in a similar way to Cristiano, people who never watched football ascribed all of United's success to him at the time.When he left, so did his fans and many said United will fail.
Yet it never got to his head. He always remained grounded.
Cristiano has a shite personality. Just accept it.
Siiiuuu later prick
So many of these wannabe Ronaldo sympathizers exposing themselves, its a shame really.
We always complained how the standards have dropped, the culture within the club going down the gutter, players not being professional enough. Whether it was Pogba or Depay or anyone else, we always wanted the club/manager to have a backbone and establish authority. Mourinho tried it but his methods were toxic, Ole lasted because he let players do whatever they wanted, LvG tried but his methods were outdated.
Today we have manager who is doing everything that we asked for - implementing a playing style, demanding the highest standards, command authority. In order to do that he realized that Ronaldo wasn't the answer and the guy just couldn't swallow the truth. Threw all his toys out of the pram and crossed too many lines. And yet, we have these fanbois who are now completely doing a u-turn and backing this egoistical past it player. Its shocking.

No... you seemed to have missed the point completely. Maybe I shouldn't be surprised. I don't see the need to say anything yet
I have virtually never been on the same side of Morgan (and by the way, I dreamed up "Piers Moron" in the 1990s) in my life and pay very little attention to Souness who spends 99% of the time being a horse's arse. Further more, never said Ronaldo should stay. but once again, you decide to make up crap
There's no need to say anything ay this point - which is pretty much what the statement says so why bother. Mind you, with some people here if you say you like the month of June they'll tel you that that is backing Ronaldo
you really should consider a career as a Tory MP with the amount of nonsense you make up
Are we talking cross wires? I was saying the only place bringing in former players seems to have worked was Bayern. Of course they are brought in by the chief exec (who may also be an ex player). I don't believe I ever said the manager appoints directors. All I said was that ex players don't tend to automatically be good appointments - especially at manager level
Aye, can’t wait for him to leave and hopefully they all follow suuuiiiiiiT
I know about legal speak - I just thought it wasn't particularly necessary: I mean, we didn't think they were doing nothing or ignoring things. We all know how this is going to end: he'll never play for us again one way or another. This doesn't add anything to the previous statement that they were "aware of the interview"
that's not bad! but then I'm branded a fan boy so I can't possibly say it made me smile
