I didnt say he was a flop, but he was not a successful signing, he performed below expectation. He was a record signing and a superstar before he joined us.

Chicharito on the other hand performed above his expectation, we were shocked by his rise in the team. He was a fantastic signing

Flop na unsuccessful signing na. Hehehe

It's not about dropping 40 goals once in 4 seasons. Man was dropping 50+ regularly.

50 plus goals in like 5 straight seasons.

Those names una mention, how many times did they drop 30+ consecutively?

CapitalCee:
Rooney and Van Persie did 30+ goals season Multiple times in England na. Van Nistelrooy did 41 goals in 2002. So nothing new there.

Na 40 goals Ronaldo use score 800+ goals?

KingTom:
I have a theory that Messi may not have achieved as much as he did if Pendu didn't go to Madrid, it applies to Pendu as well. Your biggest motivation is your rival catching up with you

Hmmm. The rivalry pushed them.

Bombblacks:
I don't think any of Ronaldo or Messi would be getting those 50 , 48 and 40 plus League goals in England. He would have also struggled to win those individual awards over Messi if he had stayed in England. Madrid was the only club that could go toe to toe with Barca in terms of hype and PR.

Thank you.

I used to follow and I still do follow Barcelona as much as I do United. So, it was easy for me to like Messi even though Man Utd is my favourite club. Back then, I used to argue that Ronaldo was better because he added goals to his game before Messi but when Ronaldo left, I was just too pained and that coincided with the period Messi reinvented his game like Ronaldo did earlier so I opted to Stan Messi...I am also left-footed so maybe that's another thing that made me choose Messi...

Make I no talk too much, I no fit forgive Ronaldo for leaving for Madrid. It's the most painful period for me as a United fan...

I also started to hate Rooney when he pushed for a move away. It was that overhead kick against City that made me forgive and forget...

It's all good

ChristineC:
he'd have achieved the same. Madrid largely got over the line in those competitions because of him. I don't think he'd have scored any less than he did if he continued in England. time has shown that the "competitiveness" in English football really depends on the party involved.

With which support system? Which coach. Some strong men that aided him were already in the evenings of their careers. Scholes, Giggs, and even Fergie. That period was different from now, in case you want to bring Pep's recent dominance.

Ijustwantto:
and competing directly with messi to show him the boss which is not true. The stats says it all, head to head

Well, there should be an AI that let's you create imaginary arguments. You can explore it.

Jamiuokolaa:
100%..however the reputation of "playing for Real Madrid" hits different...

Not taking anything away from the club status around that time ( I even think we were richer/more valuable than Madrid) but that buzz that comes with being associated with "Los Blancos/Los Merengues" is something else..

Those guys were starting a new project then.

I believed that's what they pitched to him.

They bought some sharp players during the time he went also. La Liga was also not as competitive as EPL. Scoring would be more easy. And competing directly with Messi to show him he's the boss.

Hehehe.

Na analysis.

patrickmuf:
You don carry me put for the front.

I don't think I will ever forgive Ronaldo for leaving Man Utd at that time he did...

I know that's why you chose to stan Messi.

If Ronaldo had won those 5 balon d'ors, and 5 ucls with us, no united fan will ever stan Messi. Hehehe.

It pained me at that time. But I'm glad he left because he probably would have not achieved what he did with Madrid. We were on decline.

Maybe not decline at the time but maybe he analysed the matter and saw Madrid would suit him best.

maik99:
There’s no way someone that won a golden boot is not a successful signing my bro😂
The way you even downplay his 5 Goals(only few PL players have done it) and a hat trick at Anfield of all places…

Same way you dey downplay Garnacho. Hehehehe

nitrogen:
You sure say no be Greek gift Pep dash Amorin so?

That pep na fraud. I no dey trust am.

afrodoc2:
Funny thing, it was your brother that first brought Ronaldo FC and Anti-Ronaldo FC into it. We just connected the dots later.



[b]

Thank you. Nobody talk Ronaldo before

maik99:
I didn’t read this epistle but is it so difficult to accept that I don’t rate a player?

That you don't rate him should not be a license to say nonsense

Yemike:
That keep on bashing Mason week in week out then.
It's arguable but most of his football fans are united supporters or ex united supporters.

This is not true. United is just one club. Ronaldo has Madrid fans, Chelsea, Liverpool, Chelsea, etc.

Yemike:
Most of them are. Thank God GreenGrass is flourishing they'd have been using him as a bad reference point to massage their master's bruised ego. I'm lowkey happy that brother did not make the mistake of rejoining united to show he wasn't hyped, he was praised for his talent.

You mean most Ronaldo fans are United fans?

Yemike:
Thank you for this. His offence was that he doesn't pass to their idol for his usual tap ins and they also expect him to be gushing over him like a god that he is to them.
I've since understand that Ronaldo loyalists ain't true man utd fan at least until he retires.

I am a Ronaldo fan. But I did not send targeted hate at Greenwood because of him. My hands are clean.

You people forget that Ronaldo has fans across all clubs. So don't assume any Ronaldo fan that insulted Greenwood is a United fan.

Na you and your fellow akpamus drag Greenwood. No change am. Drop that spatula your amala don burn

Ronaldo FC started hating Greenwood and you followed them

See say them dey use your head for you?

maik99:
This applies to every young football player I guess
With Garnacho the base quality is not even there
If you believe in him, fair enough

This guy dey watch ball so?

See the kind person una dey argue with. Hehehehe

Which base quality you dey find?

afrodoc2:
Oh ok. I am not on most social media. My reference points are here and RedCafe.

It's a lie. Don't mind him. I'm very much active on Twitter. The hype around Greenwood was more massive than Garnacho.

Comparing the hype of someone with bullet on both legs to Garnacho?

TrebleChamp:
Some of them also criticised Greenwood for being selfish and all, they will leave the useless more experienced players and be blaming the young players who are at least playing with their heart for the club.

I remember that year na. They started insulting Greenwood, saying he does not pass. The season he entered the scandal.

Hehehe

"Yamal is 17" but when we say young talented players should be playing games you guys will say they are not ready. Hehehe.

Only ignorant people will lash out at any young player at the club constantly and keep doing it constantly. Any youth that flops at this current United is 90% on United.

Anything they do in their senior stage is on them.

maik99:
We had this kid, a generational talent, playing for us just three years ago and he was not as hyped as Garnacho is rn

You lie. And you know it.

engrelvis:
Pls Martial is better than Zirkzee. When Martial started with us he was doing well until laziness n lack of commitment finish him off. Since Zirkee started what has he done besides one goal manage to score.

That's how they argue.

Like people with 5kb memory card in their brains.

They forget easily

Garnacho na the new man to blame.

This thread dey always muzz me. 😀

TrebleChamp:
He was rubbish i agree, but he was the only player always willing to run at defenders and try to work something out. Trashford should be doing better than Garnacho in this team, but we are not seeing that. Make una give the small boy a break

That's the thing that annoys me on this board.

Most people evaluate players and situations wrongly and and with bias.

This same Garnacho? Person wey been dey ball. ETH really messed a lot of players.

Check Raphina under Xavi and Raphina under Flick. Same player that Barca fans wanted out last season is balling like mad and one of their best players now.

I'll give the guy grace and see how he plays under a sensible coach and system.

I weep for United fans.

Since Garnacho born pikin, na nonsense he just dey play.

iamoyindamola:
Which onana
Those motherfvckas no fit use leg deflect the ball

Shey na cone he be?

Wetyn make am dey post?

As a young player wey dey come up, the first thing wey enter your head na to give your babe belle.

Your must play the rubbish. Ode.

patrickmuf:
So I should do like ChristoBam and stick to a manager that is failing?

I will support Amorim but if he doesn't deliver I will call for his sack. I no dey loyal to any manager, you are here to deliver and if you don't, you have to leave...

Whoever is not happy should ignore or do whatever pleases you...

Them feel say we come here to play.

If Amorin no deliver, na me go first call am out.

I'm only loyal to current performance.

Ten Hag fans dey muzz me.

Sir, Bayern eliminated Arsenal last season
