Definitely PSG. An easy league title and a crack at the CL.
With United, it'd be a possible top 4 and a crack at the EL.

If we do get him back then that's then Pogba's never stepping into the starting XI again. Can't have 2 players on the field who switch on only when we are attacking, especially in the current PL.
He’s never coming back.
If you want a pure goalscorer then Ronnie will hold his own against any player in the world at 40, I’ve no doubt about that.
His movement is still there and he’s quick enough to get into positions so long as the service is there (hint: Bruno)
Make it happen.
0% he will consider coming back. At this stage of his career, he just want guarantee trophy every season, and chances to break all time goalscoring record.
If not Juventus, he can do it in PSG.

If the above is true then those players work out to about £470,000/530,000ish Euro a week.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/f...tars-wages-REVEALED-Jesse-Lingard-s-deal.html
According to this(I know its the Mail) Lingards deal is a base 75 grand that moves up to 100 grand if we get champions league(which we have).
https://talksport.com/football/5627...Juan Mata took a significant,pay cut to do so.
According to this Mata took a huge pay cut to stay with us. Dropping from 180 grand down to 135 grand. This one also says that Jones is on 120 grand a week, and as far as I can tell thats with the 25% pay cut for no CL.
The numbers are all over the place depending on who your source is. But Id go out on a limb and say 600,000 euro probably isnt that far fetched.
If it were any other player I'd agree with you. I know it won't happen, and it probably shouldn't happen but I'd love to see it happen!
Not to mention him still being one of the best players in the air - his leap is insane
I know this was 2019 Before his new contract - but McTominay on 10K a week ? Considering he broke into our first-team in 2017/18 - i doubt he played 2.5 seasons on £10K a week - we probaby have reserve-players making twice as much
Who said they get the same salary? This is according to MEN.
Apparently Rojo and Bailly is on £80k/week.
Lingard and Jones on £75k/week. Mata on £160k.
That combined is around €540k/week. And this basic salary mate. If we reach CL (which we did) You have to calculate 10-15% extra. So around €600k/week
I would definately terminate or shift them out if it means Ronaldo come for a good 2-3 seasons.
Good post.
Its not a financial issue. Its simply down to whether he's amenable towards returning.
Yeah that's fair enough - but as good as Ronaldo can be i'm just not sure it's a wise invesment long term.
As you say though he would probably be more useless for us in the short term than 4/5 of those listed.
I think in the current climate we'd be better off just cleaning the wage bill up and being in a better financial position to go again once finances return to normal.
@SirAF SIUUUUUUUUU
I’ll drive the fecking muppet train if there is any possibility in this. God Almighty I would fecking love it
The mirror has him at 10 grand a week as well https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/every-man-utd-players-2019-20938173
But 90min has him getting his wages doubled to 60 grand a week.

Like I said, it all depends who you ask. The source seems to be Spotrac. And they now have him on 20 grand a week.

Not going to happen, but I would perform unspeakable acts to myself.
I like this.
Yeah but he’s not just any 36 year old is he? It’s Ronaldo.
He scored 48 goals in all competitions for clubs and country last season though. If that doesn't convince you, he also scored 6 goals in 4 serie A games this season so far, plus 2 goals in 3 games for Portugal. So in past 1 year or so, to be exact since August last year and up to now, he scored around 56 goals in 61 games in all competitions for clubs and country. And that's his most recent year form, as a player who is approaching 36.
I mean, there's not many players in the world right now who managed to score 56 goals in his past 61 games.
You’re forgetting his team hardly create chances too. If he played at a club like Bayern, he would likely put up similar if not better numbers than Lewandowski.
No data for Greenwood
This bollocks again? He's blatantly not coming back to us. I'm sure I've posted this at least 2 other times in this thread alone.
PSG or City. I doubt he cares about UTD like some fans cares about him. Imho
Its Ronaldo. And we would win trophies if he came back, which makes the money irrelevant.
If given a chance, I would take Messi over Ronaldo. Even though I love Ronaldo for obvious reasons and not like Messi (not that I hate him) due to those Champions league finals, I would love Messi to United.
Messi provides more to the team than Ronaldo at this stage of their career.
Just imagine when history says worlds two best players played for Manchester United at some point in time, this would be fantastic.

Are people really still thinking he'll comeback for us one day ?
1. No thanks
2. Not gonna happen
2. Not gonna happen
Because of 1 player? He's not the same player he used to be when he left. He can barely even dribble past a man in Serie A which is more slow tempo wise compared to EPL
Made no sense 3 years ago won't make sense now
He might not win us the big trophies but it would be worth it just to see him in the red of manchester yet again, god i'd be buzzing.
Well I guess - but he got his new contract this spring was it ? A first-team players at 22-23 years old earning 10K a week at United ? Nah - don't believe it
[/QUOTE]
Logical Me
Unless he is free and a takes a huge pay cut then no thanks. Zlatan worked because he is 7 ft tall powerhouse who is also very good handling the ball from deep and playing at a slow pace, but yet you aren't going to conquer the world with either 35 year old as your main attacker unfortunately. United need to save cap space for younger guys like Haaland who has been more prolific in the champions league.
Emotional Me
In spite of everything I just typed, feck it, lets bring him home.

Everything you have said is spot on logically. But on an emotional level, if the boy wants to come home, it would be immoral to not let the boy come home.
We would have to sell Rashford and Martial as they earn 400k plus. Maybe Pogba too. It makes so little sense that it might just work!
I'd take him back as long as he isn't going to take minutes from Pelistri's development
He’s on £540,000 a week at Juventus! Not worth it now.
Don’t make the same mistake you made with Pogba!

I always had a feeling that he would want to come back to United as his swan song, once his days at the top level are over.
Will name my first child Cristiano if it happens.
