Christiano Ronaldo has definitely paid his dues and deserves his rightful place as one of the greatest icons of football history.


No contest!


A tree, they say, can't make a forest.


17 goals so far this season is a remarkable feat, his age notwithstanding.


T = Together

E = Everyone

A = Achieves

M = Much




It's high time Man U played as a team, period!

If you like, write 500 pages, the fact still remain that Messi is miles from Ronaldo.
I respect Ronaldo honestly, he's very sporty and energetic. His drive has always been to be too, but someone has always remained there, in fact, that is hiss greatest undoing.
Leo has had his poorest season so far but still won a title with PSG. With about 4 goals and 15 assists, this is considered really poor for Messi's caliber.
However, Messi has had a magnificent career such that if he retired at 25, he'd still be considered as the greatest.
I dont even know what his drive is, but with him football is fluid, made easy. He does these things as though it is a fluke, one would think it was a mistake, but it is not because he does them repeatedly and with such aplum and precision.

I would never understand why anyone would pick Ronaldo over Messi if indeed they watch football.

Why would anyone even feel a need to pick one over the other?!!

Why not just enjoy two really good players?!! Why the dumb need to pull down one in order to elevate the other?!!

That's the real question!

Werey, Messi Has 4 goals in the worst league in Europe. He would have flopped massively if he was playing in the Egyptian League nor Kenyan League

Shut up. You are not a man utd fan. You are just a Ronaldo fan. We the real man utd fans want him to leave.

Its not about how many goals he scores, its about the team doing well and winning trophies.

Without him we finished 2nd, with him see where we dey.

How can a whole man utd be playing conference league with clubs like Ado Den Hag?

Thank you!!!

Enough of glorifying a player over a team! It is all shades of wrong! No one even gives credit to those who worked hard to assist his goals!

This is part of United's problem this season!

Ronaldo came in, and things went haywire! The team spirit suddenly evaporated!!! Everyone forgot his duty or his football sense!

Those players have forgotten how to play as a team! It even shows in the game play of an excellent player like Bruno Fernandes! Such a shame!

I hope this change under the new manager

the problem is that the English press and media especially the so called retired English footballers would not just allow the coaches to do there works....retired players like agbonlahor, Garry Neville, etc would be trying lecture the coach on which english player to buy, imagine buying Maguire for over 90million( most expensive defender), let me not talk of wan bissaka price self same way the hyped jack grealish and left guardiola with no option than to pay a whopping 100milion, today that same grealish is not worth that price .....now thesame English retired English players with there news propanganda are hyping declan Rice of west ham for 150million and pushing man united to buy

Oloshi, ronaldo is playing in a top epl club and he has succesfully moved them to conference league to play against teams like rapid vienna and rosenborg while messi plays in the champions league next season. You can only cry and hate on nairaland, messi has already set the standard for ronaldo and other players to follow.

The topic is about man U and Ronaldo, you still manage to drag Messi into it. This isn't ordinary

tesppidd:
;DMost probably where they were last season without him.

So you honestly believed that this United team minus Ronaldo will take the second place from Liverpool?

Is that what you mean?

Pls that fraud call Messi should come and play premier league just for one season and play Seria A just for a season and Portuguese league for another season,not a farmers league and stop over hyping him,CR7 is a cow and goat combine .

See them useless players
Mediocre and tired legs would always search for a great player to lay their bullshit curses and blames on

Manchester United met Chelsea in a crucial Premier League clash on Thursday, April 28 at the Old Trafford Stadium. After a goalless first half, the Blues scored through Marcos Alonso on the hour mark. Thanks to Cristiano Ronaldo, Manchester United equalized two minutes after the opening goal of the game

The Red Devils seemed set to lose the game after being dominated by the away side, but the Portuguese maestro put them level with a powered shot from close range.

The Old Trafford faithful are understandably happy with Ronaldo's effort, which was his 17th Premier League goal of the season. They took to Twitter to slam claims that the Portuguese star has been a problem for the team.

Here is a selection of tweets from Manchester United fans:

Chelsea and Manchester United will have to share a point apiece, with Ronaldo's powerful goal canceling out Alonso's brilliant effort.

The two sides will rue the scoreline, especially as they need to maintain top form as the season draws to a close.

Cristiano Ronaldo is going to have to accept: Dean Jones on Erik ten Hag's Manchester United appointment

According to journalist Dean Jones, Cristiano Ronaldo will have to adapt his game to suit incoming manager Erik ten Hag if he is to be a success under the Dutch manager at Old Trafford. The veteran goal machine has enjoyed a productive season in front of goal this campaign, but following poor performances by the rest of the team, they currently sit in sixth place.

Speaking to GiveMeSport, Dean Jones pointed out that Ronaldo would have to push himself to fit into the tactical setup of his incoming manager if he intends to stay and succeed at the club next season. He said:

“Cristiano Ronaldo is going to have to accept the situation. How much he knows of ten Hag, I don’t know. But, it’s up to him to do his homework, understand his style of football, understand his philosophies.”

Ten Hag is widely expected to set Manchester United to press from the front as has been his preferred style. The demands of this tactical instruction may be an issue for Cristiano Ronaldo, who is currently in his late 30s.

However, with Ronaldo’s remarkable physical attributes and insatiable drive to win, it is likely that the Portuguese star will adapt. However, it also remains to be seen if he will even remain at the club next season.

Most @premierleague goals this season against the current top 5:

8 - Cristiano Ronaldo
4 - Mohamed Salah
4 - Sadio Mane
4- Odsonne Edouard
4 - Diogo Jota

Sincerely speaking for every discerning heart who have followed Ronaldo especially on his arrival at Manchester United will know that Ronaldo has never being the problem and will never be because if you have followed the trajectory of his career he has never being and wouldn't have started with ManU on his second stint. The lies that he has being the problems of Man U has always being the creation of this hater pundits, sport analysts and commentators and some who are Messi fans but decided to tear Ronaldo down just to better the lot of their preferred choice. Even in this article, names should have being called of those championing the hatred their lies and analyses. The likes of Agbolahon, Neville and more, because they crafted this hate, sold it to the football world and set out to destroy Cristiano for no reason. Even Rooney left the business of coaching his relegated Derby club to go after Cristiano Ronaldo and what follows in the public view. The hate and wickedness perpetrated by these guys reached it's peak in man u but he had always stood strong and the fans are now seeing their lies and voicing out against it to the shame of those cold blooded haters. In any case, up Ronaldo and his magnificent soccer prowess and successful exploits on the field of play. The blanket of lies is now lifting and the light is shinning brightly on the space and all who are not blinded can see clearly.

The best way to look at football is not have any emotional attachment to any player or club. If u don't, you will let your emotions influence your judgement than what is ground. That's why so called club fans and Ronaldo & Messi fans/rivals have a hard time seeing beyond their emotional attachments.

Ronaldo is an amazing player no doubt. He has contributed so much to football, brought success to the clubs he has played& given fans joy. But his coming to man united hasn't turned out as planned. Ronaldo is scoring goals but he negatively affected the balance of the team. The man united before ronaldos coming was a much more fitter and better outfit than what we seeing. There's no point going on about hate. It's just the fact on ground

With 52 goals conceded so far?

oga you finish 2nd because other teams are not doing well last season, now there are back to form. Did ronaldo stop any man u players not to play? All of them have seen competition this season and there are no where to be found. If not for ronaldo, na relegation get una

C7 real God of soccer in our present day football.
Thank God it happened in our generation. He's the through definition of complete package in football of modern day competition.
Unfortunately he still have critics about who is the GOT in the world of football today.

oga stop man u where nothing last season, they just capitalized on other big teams weakness, check na if they were very good as you claim what happened to them in Europa league final? Liverpool were not good last season, chelsea were not good too, arsenal too, name them except man City. They were lucky just lercester that time.

See mumu talk, playing europa and conference league without winning shishi isn't waste of time? Don't worry, by next season manyoo will join norwich and watford in championship.

They were nothing and they finished in top 4. Is it not the same top 4 they are struggling to achieve now? Pls go and be nothing and finish in top 4.


What's my business if Liverpool, Chelsea were not good last season? Is it man united that said that they shouldn't be good? So why did the remaining 16 teams not take advantage of the so called weaknesses of the big teams to finish where man united finished in the league?

All this grammar u are writing doesn't in any way negate the fact that Ronaldo has negatively unbalanced the team

tesppidd:


Why should you imagine he is in Man City? Is that how to be a GOAT?

Looking for great players to carry you?

Just like he was carried at barca and then ran to psg to be carried as barca collapsed

He is finished. Repeat after me

U no sabi anything

I no longer watch United matches even though I’m a fan.

Only 3 matches left for the season though

This man why do you so much love playing to the gallery

How many times do i have to remind you that it is you Ronaldo fans who always talk about singlehandedly?

"Oh Ronaldo carries the team"
"Oh Ronaldo can play with 10 pieces of wood"
"Oh Ronaldo does it all by himself but Messi needs Xavi and Iniesta"
