Manchester United is a club blinded by loyalty. Ronaldo is not the same as before even a blind man can see that. Ole is not a world-class coach, our recent trophy less season can testify, what else does the club need to sack that mudafucka angry angry

The signing of Cristiano Ronaldo might just have made united weaker.

Up until this season, United knew how to win against the big teams as Solskjaer deployed a counterattacking system in which his team sat behind the ball, compressing the space in the simplest way possible.

A run of tricky games – they play the other five of the ‘Big Six’ before November is out – gives a chance for Solskjaer to recover, then, and yet the collapse against Leicester suggests Ronaldo has made United worse at the one thing they did well.

Of all the forwards to have played three Premier League games this season, Ronaldo ranks bottom of the table for pressures, with 17, significantly fewer than second-bottom Romelu Lukaku’s 43.

Predictably, Ronaldo’s disinterest in pressing has spread like an infection through the squad. It was remarkable to watch how easily Leicester passed from centre-back into central midfield, with one vertical ball past Ronaldo allowing Youri Tielemans or Boubakary Soumare to turn and run towards goal.

Carragher has been speaking about the attacker’s comeback to United. Even though he is “one of the greatest players of all time”, the pundit claims that Ronaldo may have a “negative” influence on the team:

Manchester United needed a midfield anchor like Ndidi or Saul more than they needed another attacker, Ronaldo might mask this deficiency, but there were still warning signs in the performance against Newcastle in his second debut for United.

Now it's all too glaring to see against a team of Liverpool's caliber where the disorganized system of United was exposed by the Liverpool team.

Solskjaer might have his tactical flaws but this is a team that finished second last season being thrashed by Liverpool.

Ronaldo's unwillingness to track back and defend is really affecting the team and has taken the shine off Cavani who had a great season the previous season.

All united had to do was consolidate on their last season's success ending second on the table and entering the Europa final...
They didn't/ don't need Ronaldo in the forward dept, they've got cavani who did extraordinarily well last season, martial too dey, and their highest goal scorer coming from Bruno with crazy pacy winger in greenwood and rashford
They don't need Ronaldo whatsoever...

United and ronaldo just be opportunist bastards who don't Know what they need.

How is man utd's predicament ronaldo's fault? Manutd's problem isn't with the attack. Or when last did we win with a clean sheet? Did you watch the match yesterday? Those people played like they've never played together before. So much disorderliness. The defence was shiit!!! Any ball that passes through the centre half was a threat. I think Liverpool finds it hard to play a team with one man down cause I'm very sure if man utd were not redcarded, they would have scored more.

Ronaldo is old for competive leagues. Clubs need him in China or Arab countries. He should be used as substitute.

What has ronaldos unwillingness to track back got to do with 5-0 thrashing? Is it because of Ronaldo not tracking back that Manchester united got whooped? If Ronaldo doesn't defend u mean 9 other players will be too weak to defend?
