Buddy I literally just posted Giggs omitting him.Share me those articles?
Marcelo is literally his best friend in football.
And I don’t know where you got that article from regarding Giggs.
Here is him putting Ronaldo in his best ever XI here:
He's not wrong? So we would have been relegated without him?He is not wrong, but still, feck off Piers.
Piers absolutely loves Ronaldo. He is the embodiment of how Piers believes all athletes should be. Massive narcissists like him. I'm not trying to have a dig here but I think that's why Piers loves him so much. You always hear Morgan slagging off athletes that complain about their mental health etc.They're best mates.
Like i said two years ago is irrelevant for the performance this season. The is zero proven evidence that Ronaldo stunk up the place, and i don't buy into a attack with Ronaldo in it being Ronaldo as the problem. I doubt it was Ronaldos decision. Nor is it Ronaldos fault how DDG and other defends perform.Not sure what you find confounding but the poster you quoted was pointing out the drastic difference in the level of play between the team that had just finished 2nd when Ronaldo joined and then immediately stunk up the place the moment he came and the attack was built around him.
Yes, the team magically went from 2nd to our worst points total in the premier league era when he came by... coincidence. Has absolutely nothing to do with building the attack against a man who can't be arsed to move around the pitch. Brilliant stuff here.Like i said two years ago is irrelevant for the performance this season.

That’s what Piers would like people to believe!They're best mates.
You and I have very different perspectives. Your focus is on the petulance of a guy, all professional accomplishments aside, has serious rape allegations against him. Arguing with coaches is your biggest issue. Moot to me in context.Yes Cristiano Ronaldo has never shown himself to be a toxic personality. Forget that he literally was arguing with the new coach less than 2 weeks ago in the most public way possible. 2 weeks that is how far we need to go back
I think that’s his only possible optionForget about a fee, as long as a club can cover his wages, get rid.
Unfortunately no one can cover his bastard wages.... I still hold out hope he goes to Chelsea, though I highly doubt it
Not quite. Ronaldo wouldn't pass the ball in training so Van Nistrelrooy confronted him. As they went went back and forth, Ruud told him to to his "father", pointing at Quiroz (because he felt that Quieroz gave him special treatment).Ruud made a comment about his recently deceased dad in training
The very man that didnt move around the pitch when united conceded two against Brighton, on the August 7th in the first half. then the team scored in the second half? The very man wtat passed the ball out of goal to conceded a goal, or didnt dive and collectly, as a team, didnt run against BrentfordYes, the team magically went from 2nd to our worst points total in the premier league era when he came by... coincidence.

Except they are citing his dressing room influence... So perhaps he still is one of the issues. I will believe ETH on this matter.What facts? Perhaps you mean your veiwpoint.
If you want current; go look at the first two games of this season, Ronaldo isn't the issue.
Yep. But those inconvenient facts don't matter to the Cristiano brigade.And scored a lot more goals. 73 - 57
Not even sure what this is supposed to mean.The very man that didnt move around the pitch when united conceded two against Brighton, on the August 7th in the first. then scored in the second half? The very man why past the ball out of goal, or didnt dive and collectly, as a team, didnt run against Brentford
100% agreed.Forget about a fee, as long as a club can cover his wages, get rid.

He is not a scapegoat for unjust reasons.You and I have very different perspectives. Your focus is on the petulance of a guy, all professional accomplishments aside, has serious rape allegations against him. Arguing with coaches is your biggest issue. Moot to me in context.
The myopia on one particular player here is extremely short sighted and it is a cop out on the bigger issues with the group as a whole.
I think Ronaldo should have been let leave this summer, yes. But if he's staying that's hardly the most critical focus right now when you see the lack of on field commitment from every entitled and heartless player on the pitch.
The United PR machine is running quite well it seems getting fans worked up over a scapegoat. Suppose I shouldn't be surprised - it's worked for the Glazers for almost a decade.
No, they're not citing his behavior they're citing stories from somewhereExcept they are citing his dressing room influence... So perhaps he still is one of the issues. I will believe ETH on this matter.
I editedNot even sure what this is supposed to mean.
Well we knew what we were getting when we bought him. He needs faster and more productive players behind him to be effective. We had none of that yet we wet our pants when rumors were flying about Man City buying him.He is not a scapegoat for unjust reasons.
His performances have been subpar and slowed down our attack/made it extremely predictable.
I went for the most recent because it's the most recent.
He's just not very bright is he?Managers have never told lies to a press conference before.
Next up it’ll be “X has been banging them in in training, it’ll happen in a game soon honest guv”
Which have been confirmed through multiple sources i trust.No, they're not citing his behavior they're citing stories from somewhere
they're still stories, they're not objective.Which have been confirmed through multiple sources i trust.
same thing happened at Juventus ... they went from 86 to 70, with him scoring the bulk of them (21). Not saying you can put all of that squarely on Ronaldo, but it's hard to completely dismiss this either. Every single one of our attacking players has regressed after we brought him back.And scored a lot more goals. 73 - 57
In that case nothing is objective except the fact that our precipitous decline from Europa League finalists and finishing second in the league started upon Cristiano's arrival.they're still stories, they're not objective.
Ladron, thanks for pointing out that story with Marcelo, that one I wasn't aware of, seen it's in a book by another player, that's always a good source for some interesting tidbits. But you have to know how to separate normal stuff from truly toxic stuff. They're still best friends despite the info you shared. And it was very clear how much they love each other every day on the field. Relationships aren't this black or white, and you know that from your own personal life, surely. He and Ramos surely clashed many times, they're both born winners and with massive self confidence (or ego if you wanna use that word). And yet it was also quite clear they both respected each other hugely, and they still went on to win 4 Champion Leagues together. Clashing, arguing, throwing fits is part of any normal group of human ebings that needs to fight for a common goal.He had issues with Ramos and Marcelo at Madrid. Rooney and Giggs didn't seem to like him when he was here and both omit him when they mention their all time best United x1 lists. This current United squad can't seem to stand him.
Bonucci has already spoken about his attitude when he was at Juve.
Yea except Ronaldo(who is open to debate), all the others have to take a hard look at their own performances from the last season first before SOSing for new players. Thick fecks.Can you imagine the brass balls on some of those players saying we need better players, assuming they won't be the ones replaced.
Great reference.He doesnt even pass the salt

That's literally the list of biggest problem playersTweet

Why would Ronaldo even care when he wants to leave?
Nah, more about the rotten part.He's not wrong? So we would have been relegated without him?
So true, literary most of them are the reason we are shit!Can you imagine the brass balls on some of those players saying we need better players, assuming they won't be the ones replaced.
