It’s very often difficult to find a middle ground on Twitter. Just seen the Ronaldo report from Simon Stone. If you think selling Ronaldo (and not replacing him) will improve our performances massively you’re in for a shock. Yes, Ronaldo’s all round game isn’t great…
Any more. But the narrative that he came in and “destroyed” the vibes, atmosphere etc I just don’t buy it. Not happy with his attitude this summer but I’m not surprised because the club have shown no ambition in the transfer market.
I’m happy for Ronaldo to leave, but we’d need a ST replacement as well as, IMO, 2 other attacking players. You can’t rely on Martial, Sancho, Rashford. Ronaldo can leave, but you have to replace him. Even if you do, there’s massive upgrades needed elsewhere.
The Ronaldo situation as a whole involves so many different factors. It’s not as simple as the two extremes suggest- some still think his overall game is excellent- which it isn’t. Some think he was the cause of all problems last season- which he wasn’t.
