From the start of last season, absolutely.
It's more that sentence is difficult to understand. You wrote that the reason for criticizing Ronaldo was a stick to beat Ronaldo.

He gave us 3 great seasons tbh. 06/07, 07/08 and 08/09
08/09 wasn’t that great from him. He was throwing strops and out of form in the first half of it, clearly didn’t want to be there. He improved a lot in the run-in, especially in the CL.

Whats everyone's predictions for the club's reaction? Terminate contract today? Tomorrow? Next week? Not at all? Wait until transfer window opens and try and get some money for him (and pray he has a good WC to put some value on him)?

Personally I believe they need to be doing it before the World Cup starts on Sunday just to avoid all that noise. The longer the wait the more we are still the Ronaldo show and the more its undermining the manager.

Can someone help me out with the rat comment? Feel like that's a bit lost in translation (for me), doesn't he say "Rooney and the (other) rats?" That doesn't necessarily include Rooney being a rat, but looking at the thread I'm getting this wrong
By saying the other he is saying that Rooney is a rat. If he had said Rooney and the rats that would have excluded Rooney from being a rat.

Piers Morgan on TS in 10 minutes. Don’t tune in for him but to listen to the other dickhead Simon Jordan call him out
When Simon Jordan isn't the biggest d1ckhead in the room..... that is a rare occurrence, but in this instance undoubted, the hierarchy of d1ckheads?

1. Trump
2. Putin
3. Morgan
4. Boris
5. Jordan
6. Murphy
7. Souness

07 was a good season but i wouldn't called it great.
Do you think 08/09 was a great season?

I really think so yeah. Not as many goals as the crazy previous season but enough to lead to a 3rd PL in a row. Safe to say though, his true peak was at Real Madrid

I thought the comment about young footballers not giving respect, if you actually listen to it through, he is actually moaning about young footballers not listening to him, or wanting to go to him for advice etc.. as much as young footballers in general

He's clearly in breach of contract, so i imagine they can cancel his contract without any financial implications?

If we do we still hold his registration, so would be due a fee if another team wanted to sign him.... unless we waive it

Have you seen photos of his dad? He’s turning into him as he approaches middle age. Happens to all of us.
It's not that - Rooney liked a drink when he was a player. His face being like that is because of alchohol. I'm sure he partakes even more often now he doesn't have to play.

Let’s hope so, cleanest and quickest way out of this.

Not every breach of contract means legal grounds for contract termination. Certain type of breaches are provisioned to have financial penalties instead.

The embarrassing thing about all of this is that Ronaldo doesn’t realise just how easily Morgan has played him along for his own benefit.

Morgan has been around bigger fish than footballers. He’s loving the attention, is making money off the back of it, all the while laughing at Ronaldo and his stupidity.

Morgan is a parasite; we know that. Ronaldo really is as thick as mince.

In the end it's fair to say that the many posters that wanted to get rid of him at all cost this summer were right. I never thought that he would do one of the most unprofessional thing in professional sport and he also told on himself and what we didn't truly know about his attitude under Rangnick.

It sounds ominous. Generally when it's just a fine or a generic sanction that kind of statement isn't made, right?
I think it's contract termination

If it's anything less, or nothing much at all, then United are going to look terrible.
