Ole changed from a Fast counter attacking team that got them to second to a get the ball to Ronaldo in the box as he didn’t have the legs for counter attacking as he slowed the ball down every time he got it and from there they plummeted.
Then Ralf Rangnick had to change his tactics to suit after a few games as Ronaldo wasn’t mobile enough and wouldn’t do the running.
So there 2 permanent managers last season had to adapt their tactics for him. Ten Haag hasn’t done that and he can’t cope.
You’re trying to act all clever making out you know better but I watch a lot of Man Utd and I’d wager I’ve seen a hell of alot more of them than you, on tv and in person. I don’t need to read shi1te on billy big bol11ocks I’ve seen it with my own eyes. as I watch them often enough.
I grew up with a Boro supporting mother and a Man utd supporting father (from Salford) because of that they are my second team and when Boro aren’t playing and they are I watch them.
Ten Haag has given him plenty of opportunities way more than his performances have deserved and he’s repaid him with pathetic performances and tantrums befitting a toddler.

To get respect, you have to earn respect. Something Ronaldo has never been able to do.
Treat others how you wish to be treated.
The bloke is a grade A to$$er and should be in jail.
Utd have done well to get out of this relationship for nothing.
ETH will be absolutely over the moon Utd have managed to get rid of this huge problem for him.
They are a much better team without him. Results and performances have proved this.
Be interesting which club will take him on. I can't imagine may of the top clubs will go anywhere near him....nor would anyone blame them.

another club's board signing developmental players and managers not playing them
utd brought this on themselves.
Clearly bought him for the commercial opportunity, which meant they had to change the way they played to accommodate him and it got the manager the sack
New manager comes in and wont play that way so he is surplus to requirements, at that point when it was confirmed no one he would join was paying the fee that utd thought they should get they should of give up on him and released him then.
Probs cost them around 13m to have him on the bench and cause these problems this season.
He would of took a free transfer and surrender of wages, as he has done just that.
I believe the board wouldn't sanction this because while he would still be on the bench they would still sell all them ronaldo shirts and merchendise until fans knew the game was up.
He done the interview to take away any chance of him playing in the team, and also took away any merch and shirt sales that the board were clearly hanging on to, so they had no other option than pay him to stay and offer nothing, or agree to both move on.
They should of done this in the summer, they have let him highlight how bad things really are there, not that plenty of ex players and coaching staff haven't already expressed this, but now he's done so in such a public way everyones giving and bringing up all them opinions that backed up what he said.
I don't think the owners are selling up though, think they just looking for someone to join them to pay for the stadium to be done over

I think the owners saw Man Utd as a long term investment that would have paid out with the super league.. don’t think they’re bothered now tbh. Liverpool are up for sale for the same reason imo. Liverpool and Man Utd need some big investment to compete at the top.. and against Newcastle.
Interesting to see if they do go for Ronaldo.. it would suit the, down to the ground in terms of their profile and future standing..

Ronaldo given two-match ban for fan phone incident
Former Manchester United forward Cristiano Ronaldo is suspended for two domestic matches for knocking a phone out of an Everton fan's hand.
www.bbc.co.uk
Banned from his next two league matches at whichever club he signs for next for smashing that Everton fan's phone in one of his many tantrums, though the ban doesn't cover European competitions.

This season alone:
Games when Ronaldo starts - 4
Man Utd goals - 2
Man Utd points - 4
Games when Ronaldo doesn't start - 10
Man Utd goals - 18
Man Utd points - 22
It's night and day.
There's plenty of more evidence to prove he makes Man Utd far worse when he plays, than when they don't have him in their team.
He refuses to admit he's in decline and has been for a good 5 years or so now and will always be in decline. It's nature. He's 37 years old.

Who mentioned crosses? I didn’t. I’ve already told you I watch them a lot, clearly more than you based on your infatuation with Ronaldo and thinking he’s still brilliant. Maybe it’s time to take down the posters from your bedroom wall.
Nobody on here hates Ronaldo, certainly not as much as you seem to love him. He was an excellent player, him and Messi were the best in the world for many’s seasons some years Messi was better some years he was however he’s not that player anymore and good things come to
an end. It’s his sh1ty behaviour thats turning fans against him not his decline. Even then it’s not hate its just being bored of his tantrums and pity for his failure to see his own decline.

Didn’t actually mention crosses though did I?
That’s fair enough on the agree to disagree don’t think either of us is going to change our opinions on this.
This is a good read on his highs and lows with juventus, some similarities with United.
In The End, Was Cristiano Ronaldo A Success At Juventus, Or A Failure?
Juventus went all out to bring Cristiano Ronaldo to Italy three years ago. As he departs for an emotional return to Man Utd, was the Ronaldo experiment a success, or a failure?

Just seen a bright red Ferrari outside WH Smiths in Darlo.
Some tall bloke in dark glasses asking the way to Rockcliffe
That bloody Ronaldo, he has no respect. The WHSmiths in Darlo is right in the middle of an indoor shopping centre. Fancy driving his car to there! Did he think he was in The Blues Brothers?
