Think he might get #21 when Dan James leaves. Or maybe Cavani will get #21, and Ronaldo #7.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.

That's odd. Wonder was his rationale was.
Still feels mad that this has happened.
I was one of those who thought it best he didn't come back, but now it's happened i'm delighted.

If?
Interesting, as previously there was talk about how it "could" happen because Cavani hadn't played in 7 this season yet.
But clearly he did today.
Everyone wants Ronaldo 7 though.
I expect even the Premier league do as they can cash in on it too.
He’s probably as amazed Roy is on Instagram as the rest of us
Everyone saying he wont do it in the PL. Do you really think if that was the case the current PL champions and CL finalists would have been trying to sign him?
Did you actually see him play well let alone consistently well at the euros? Forget the goals… trust your eyes.
Jonathan Wilson is a village idiot with a sub70 IQ, masquerading as some sort of transfer / tactics guru / snake oil salesman. I have coughed up bile with more intelligence than that ABU imbecilic moron. A complete brain damaged penis of a man.
I'd say trust your brain but it seems you'd be buggered if I did.
Let's hope he can work some magic otherwise it will be anothe frustrating season by the looks of it.
Between him and Michael "Roy Keane played bad in Turin" Cox I'm sick of these no name, wafflers.

If anybody thinks that the powers that be will give up the opportunity to market CR seven for the Premier league in Manchester United once again are absolutely kidding themselves. Of course assuming Cavani will give it up which I think he would gladly do as Ronaldo has worn that shirt for six seasons at the club. At the end of the day it’s all about the money. They will figure out a way to make the switch
I’d rather Cavani keep the 7. He’ll work harder for the club and - internationals allowing - probably be more important to us this year.

You love to see it
Still one of the worst takes I've heard in football.
He scored his first Portugal goal as a United player. This time next week he’ll have scored his 110th international goal, breaking the world record, as a United player. Love it.
Quality
What a strange take on it
Cavani will get 21 when James leaves, as 21 is his number for Uruguay. Then Ronaldo will take the 7 shirt.
The rationale being that he's Roy bloody Keane
He was obviously going to get the number 7.
The Premier League would have looked silly if they didn't approve the request.

Have you seen that Lukaku is the second higeste earner on 535k per week?
Ronaldos salary is no problem, with all the attraction he brings to us makes it up for big money we are paying him. We will earn a lot of money from shirts, new sponsorships, more tv time, more people following our matches on TV, our social medias increased by 10% in 24 hour, our announcement post on Instagram is most liked one every (sport related with nearly 13m likes).
Ronaldo brings so much more then his skills on the pitch.
This is still so surreal. It has been such a rollercoaster ride since thursday/friday i.e. 26th/27th aug 2021.
Thinking that he would join psg to city and finaly coming to us.
I dont care if we win anything or not, but i couldnt have seen him going to city.
He had his legacy on line.
I love this.

came to post this. brilliant stuff
yet redcafe will tell me the guy is not a Hnited legend. Boggles the mind
That’s probably because he has Rio, Bruno, and others contact number or even WhatsApp and spoke to them. He doesn’t have Keane number.
To be fair if James leaves, 21 is available and that’s what Cavani is wearing in Uruguay. I’m not sure what’s the meaning of 21 for Cavani but could be something special for him.
Probably this. I remember Yorke said he once msg Keane about something, with Keane responding him with a “feck off”, to the extent that he never have the courage to msg him again. I guess Keane is not an easy going person to WhatsApp with.
Jokingly aside, I remember both Ronaldo and Keane has strong mutual respect to each other, even during his time in Real Madrid, Ronaldo is always the footballer Keane would respect a lot.
He's probably still terrified of the guy.
Viva Ronaldo
I believe he has stronger pull than some rot we saw in last couple of years, great example of desire and dedication to the younger players etc. In my mind regardless of transfer fee and wages, if rest of the squad gets their focus up and push themself to be on his level, then there is no downside of him being around even if he doesnt score much.
Right now by looking performances, he will flop his hands a lot at some. Players need to support him instead of expecting to be carried.

I don't have the complete context of his conversation, but surely it's naive to expect that he never considered joining City last week?
We all know he wants to be percieved as the best, and objectively speaking, City has a much better chance of winning the league and the CL than us. And if he won the CL with them, he'd be cemented as the greatest CL player ever.
I'm sure the United memories played a part to him joining here, but that would be 10% weighted over the whole decision.

He did, because they were the only club in for him. According to the Athletic, Mendes offered us Ronaldo even before that, but we didn't think he'd leave Juve.
Once we became involved, he chose us.
Who cares in the end? We got him. Is he 100% loyal to us? No, but that's a very rare trait in today's game either way.
Goosebumps..
I think it was clear from the reports that he considered Man City and that's when they were the only option (the clubs that could afford him). The moment we were involved, it was easy decision for him, at least as per the reports and how quick the deal was wrapped up.
So when is the unveiling?
Cristiano, superstar, took one look at city and said Feck off
