Spot on - panic set in when it was rumoured that Ronaldo might go to City - but like the recent fuel crisis - all made up probably by Mendes to make Utd react and panic - this signing was based on a commercial decision rather than a footballing one…….it’s no coincidence that our performances have nose dived since as this was never ever in the seasons planning…..I mean wtf have we signed and done with Sancho? Cavani was awesome last season (albeit) when fit - now we have an ever present that has been shoe-horned into the team at what cost?The bottom line is Manchester United shit the bed when they thought Ronaldo was going to join Man City.
They prevented that - but at what price?*
Now, there are people on here who won't agree, there are people on here who follow Ronaldo with a sort of religious fervor because of the player he became and because of where he started out (I know he came from Sporting Lisbon in 2003 - but you know what I mean). But the fact is - my son was born in 2003 & he isn't a boy now, he's a man - that is how much time has past. Ronaldo is too old, too expensive and too fecking arrogant and he never should have been re-signed.
I sometimes wonder if City never really wanted him in the summer, but they just started a rumour to see what would happen and Man Utd. fell for it hook, line and sinker. The noisy neighbours must be laughing their heads off.
And don't get me started on what has happened today - an interim manager until they get an interim manager, what a joke.
*(and I don't just mean £2 million a month).
