you are just a Ronaldo fan who is only concern about his image. I am a Man U fan who is looking at the team performance. Yes united lost all those matches last season but were better organized. The compact team we saw last two seasons is gone because of him.

U are not a United fan..u are a messi fan boy ... man u hv never been composed since the clown took charge ... the players hv given up on him and want him to get sacked , they are doing that on purpose, kids that just started watching football will not understand this...when players don't want to play for u no more , forget it, they will useless u as a coach... if what pogba did yesterday dint mk u see whats going on behind the seen , then u are a novice in football... Ronaldo is the only utd player that just wants to win regardless of what his team mates are doing... the management know this , that's y they don't want to sack ole...they did same to Mourinho and van gaal

They should give Ole more time to blend with his boys. They're United after all I don't see anything, when I say anything, I mean any thing wrong with the club and fans sticking with him at this his trying time, dats what football is all about especially having the likes of Ronaldo and Sancho around that just came into the team this season.
They are not doing badly at all, they normally overcome at the end of the day, I believe they will, they usually come back at night after wandering during the day, just that on meeting Liverpool, Ole who's supposed to be the shepherd took his sheep and his Goat astray that they never recognized their way back home. What if they now meet Chelsea, a team where defenders are good as strikers, hope the score line won't be outrageous to the point where the fans starts clamoring for change of club ownership, Ole needs to be given at least after Chelsea game with Manchester United so that they will be able to identify the underlying problem after getting a more horrifying defeat from Chelsea that will make Ronaldo confess publicly he made a mistake coming back, Manchester was still United when he left England for Real Madrid in 2009, but now I don't think there's anything United in the team that played against Sallah yesterday. It happens sometimes, things like this make the season look interesting and drama filled that you don't want to miss out on any scene.
As a Chelsea fan, I believe I have just spoken the mind of everyone including that of grieving United fans.
#Stick with Ole
#United Legendary coach
#Masters of comeback

Rashford can't expect Ronaldo to pass the ball for him to score when CR7 isin good position to finish it
AngelHoly:
Rinaldo pattern of football have past...nothing like individual football now...teamwork is great part of football in this era and everyone is entitled to score at anywhere as far you are in good position to do it...

Ranaldo can't expect rashford to pass the ball for him to score when Rashford is good position to finish it just like benzema used to do to him in Madrid
So he is biggest scam to them for now

man u came 2nd in the league last season. Remember Man U couldn’t even qualify for the champions league other season. They started getting better and better and many including me thought they will challenge for the title this season so with coming of Ronaldo and the way they are playing would you say he has improved them or weaken them?

In my opinion he was an unnecessary signing. A legend way passed his prime, they only rushed into it because of sentiment and because they thought Man city were about to get him.

Even Pep recognized Ronaldo had no place in his long term plans that’s why he insisted on a free transfer because he is saving every penny towards getting the players his team really needs; Harry Kane or Haaland. Ronaldo would have just been a bonus and not by any means the central focus of his team.

Oh now u know they are other attackers , but u blame Ronaldo and leave out other attackers... at least Ronaldo is man utds top scorer presently...

oga you're the fool here Ronaldo is not playing anything in man, u he only stay inside the box waiting for teammates to pass the ball for him to tapin . Last season United finished 2nd and United didn't lost a single away match last season , United where the comeback Kings last season. And United where wining matches before Ronaldo.

It's very safe to say Ronaldo is one of United problem he makes the team weaker . Don't be deceived by those his late winners in the UCL any United player in Ronald's position can score those goals.

United need a shape player like chielsa of Juventus .

Ronaldo should go and rest he his done and dusted. sad

Dazall:
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.

What do you think? Has Ronaldo weakened United? Drop your views below
..........and what exactly has ronaldo got to do with the symbolic defence set up of ole .....?
