It's okay because Ronaldo will despite all his negatives win United trophies.

He can't run can't move doesn't get involved in build up play strops about and is generally a net negative for the team but he's a winner.

Think you’ll find he scores goals and that’s the most important thing. Why does it matter what he (doesn’t) bring to the team? He’s a striker who is there to score. That’s it.

Bent scored more goals for us over shorter time than say Carew but look which striker gave us more.

Aubameyang scored 25 for Arsenal in 18/19....they finished 5th. Giroud was a better all round CD for them. Could make a case for Firmino at Liverpool aswell hugely contributing to their success despite not scoring huge amount.

Think issue with Ronaldo is he'd have still been very effective 3-4 years ago but his all round game really declined at Juventus in last 18 months and he's been at same level at Man. United. Think some who hadn't watched him much thought he'd just be same as last time in prem, cutting in from left/right and smashing in top corner curlers from 25 yards.

Hard to justify all the team disruption he's caused if they finish 5th/6th this year. They were 2nd and 3rd in previous two seasons.
