Zlatan had so I think Ronaldo also got it.

Didn't turn up for pre season as in won't join the team for the tour or didn't turn up today and might turn up tomorrow or Wednesday?
Ngl, it being a transfer mess would be been "better" news, not an actual family emergency - many fans want to throw a negative agenda to everything too fast.
Can only assume they've got someone to bite if they've gone so public with it. Would be an embarrassing climb down if no one wants him.
If he wants to go, we should let him. No idea why he didn’t say this straight at the end of the season. We need to plan ahead and can’t have players who don’t want to be here.
I trust ten hag to make it work, either with getting Martial back to a 19/20 level, using Rashford there, or just going false 9. You have to think differently to before now that we have ten hag in. He builds a Pep style of dominance, he doesn't always need a #9, or a certain type of striker. He made it work with Haller, he also made it work with Tadić as a false 9.
Ronaldo wants to leave, we should be trying to sell him asap. Not fighting to hold on. We are in a rebuild, that distraction can only be a negative. When you factor in that he was useless and a huge problem on the pitch for us for a third of the season, still expects to start every game even if it's detrimental to him, will be leaking news and disruptions the entire year... Its just a problem we can do without. Get rid of him and use players who actually suit what Ten Hag wants to build, and run with it. It'll work out better for us. As others have said... Last year, with Ronaldo and everyone adapting their style, we scored far fewer goals than any of the previous seasons when Rashford and Martial had bigger roles. They might not be good enough to be top players, but they can make it work to a decent level for the team where we score more as a group anyway.
The man is a dick. Can't wait until he's gone and we can forget about him.
I'd love to believe it would work out like that but unfortunately I don't. Martial is dogshit, unless Rashford goes back to his top level we'd be absolutely straight up fecked I think.
Scum move by Ronaldo and his donut agent.
Have no problem with him leaving but he could have said so earlier and give the club more time.
Also,why go to the media? Now the whole world knows he wants out and it puts the club in a bad position + creates alot of noise and rumors.
He could have just told the club/Mendez and they could have worked on finding him a new club at the start of the window.
This news is bad for the tour and the launch of the new kit as well , im guessing pre orders are being canceled left and right.
The club cant be too happy about this mess.
People wanted this guy as captain,he is the first to jump ship when it gets tough.
Whether he stays or goes,him being captain should be dead in the water after this little stunt.
Hopefully he will be sold as soon as possible.

Maybe they did privately, because we did make a move for Nunez
Eriksen wants to join United.
The CR7 effect working?

His off field mentality effects how we play on the pitch with him.
Everyone is his bitch.

Sell him.
United bought Ronaldo in order to bring in winning mentality and a role model for “young players”. He scored goals, but obviously didn’t have positive impact on other players.
I think ETH will be relieved if Ronaldo choose to abandon his ship.

Exactly the frustration I feel about that
Ronaldo is a whining prick, who only cares for himself.
I have no idea, why people see him as a club legend.
The sooner this this guy leaves, the better.

He's not trying to abandon ship.
He's got the owners and club moving with the snail transfers.
Depay, Dembele, Danjuma, Dybala, Gnabry.
There's no shortage of boosting our attack without Ronaldo, just get rid of him.

Wanting to leave must have a different definition to you. As for trying to move transfers along
Can we put this shit to rest for a moment? Seems to me that most of the tabloid-worthy British media have glaringly omitted this part.

Nobody cares if Pogba won world cup. It is like saying Ronaldo won couple of Champions League trophies with Real Madrid. Why would that matter in this discussion? We know how and what Pogba did in ManUtd. We know what Ronaldo did. Enough said. You don’t have to be fanboy to see difference like ocean between players.

Absolute bullshitter.
Holy moly, the quality there is incredible…..
The difference in quality been Ronaldo and those players aren't as big as most people here seem to think. This is not Ronaldo in his prime, this is a 38 year old washed up version.Holy moly, the quality there is incredible…..
I would 100% rather see a front 3 of Rashford, Martial and Sancho than have Memphis back, or see Dybala or Dembele at United. Goodness me, are we desperate already?
Letting him go could be our best business in the window. Getting rid of the biggest prima donna in the club.
We can then get a younger striker who is willing to run and press to suit ETH system. We will also be saving millions of wages while also get our future sorted out with younger striker.

I agree, but history shows Martial can't stay fit a season, I'd much rather have a backup front 3 of Rashford Dybala Sancho than a Elanga Rashford Sancho. He's available on a free.
Who on earth is that???
Independent of Ronaldo going or staying, I'm bemused at the lack of spine with our players.
This is the umpteenth time where someone has come in and asked them to be better only for leaks and tantrums and a group effort to get rid. You can already hear whispers in the comments about ETHs trainings. It's only going to take a few bad results for these same ones to turn. As fans, I don't understand being okay with that shockingly poor professionalism and attitude.

Yeah an absolute nobody, don't you think Ornstein/Whitwell would know this info
I reckon a guy who lost a baby a couple of months ago deserves the benefit of the doubt, both when it comes to taking leave for a family issue, and when asking why he couldn't have decided this a couple of months ago.
Yes but who can we realistically afford
He called the Erikson deal weeks ago. If fab did that people would be sucking his toes.
As a fan I love to watch Ronaldo and for that reason would like him to stay. That said, I think him staying is not the best thing for a new manager and rebuild. As a new manager you want to create a certain style of play where all 11 players must run their balls off, develop as a team together and look to one and other to get out of a hole and rescue and win games when needed. Having Ronaldo in the team goes against this....
All 11 players run their balls off - Ronaldo legs are getting old it would be 10 players
Develop as a team together - Ronaldo is not part of a vision to build for the next five years
Look to one and other to win matches etc. - younger players will look to Ronaldo to save the day rather than step up (it is human nature) and we become reliant on whether he scoring a hatrick that day. When things don't work out Ronaldo gets upset and upsets the entire team
If Ronaldo wants to leave (I think it is fine for him to want to leave, it is his professional career and he doesn't have many more seasons) then let him leave, it makes it a lot easier for the club than saying we don't want you in a year or two time, a much better ending for a legend than when Keane wen for example.
It would be the best thing, best for us to develop a new team and best for Ronaldo who has one or two seasons at the top and wants to play in a team that is built and playing champions league football.
The wages released would allow us to sign a quality player with the legs to do what we want them to do
It's not rocket science it is the obvious conclusion.

Cracked me up that has.Feck him off already. Wonderful first stint, undeniable legend of the game, but lets not pretend he cares about anything but himself. The longer this goes on the more damaging it'll become. Let's move forward as a club for once.
Well he has briefed all the press that he wants out. Surely his agent must have some deals lined up for him.
Some need to see beyond their noses.Wanting to leave must have a different definition to you. As for trying to move transfers along
So he's not even gonna bother to have a sit down talk with ETH?
He prefers to relax in bed whilst talking to him as it'll be over ms teams.
