Cristiano Ronaldo is the GREATEST OF ALL TIME. Now Sit down and STFU

Cristiano has not said a thing wrong as outside of his thought on EtH who has simply stood up to a player who isn't doing much for the team, since CR does fuck all bar goals, he is bang on about all he said.

I am sorry but the guy is bigger than United himself and United fans can't cope with that. I love that he points out the flaws in a club that refuses to move up, is devoid of a winning mentality and speaks of a higher standard for them yet United nannies go all defensive. CR doesn't actually care for United his entire pull to the club was due to SAF otherwise he would not even consider City but the fact the Glazers have been a cancer to the club for over a decade. If he is speaking of how "they are the same" since he left therein lay the problem. Facilities, nutrition and progressive mentality and all. It's a club in a rather unattractive part of England so I totally get it. His fault for trying to instill his winning mentality in a club that have lacked it since the big Scot left. He is right about the youngsters as well.

Fact is CR is just a pawn in this as Piers saw an opportunity to milk it and him and he did exactly what he wanted to do, including using his passed away child as a head-liner so the villain here is the Piers, not Cristiano.

I get why United fans want him out as indeed he is a narcissist and quite frankly not so bright but I also don't see the evidence of how "he isn't a good person" for we simply don't. really know that and a lot of evidence points out to the contrary.

This has put a huge dent on his legacy as yet he also needs to accept he is quite finished as if he wasnt dumb as a bulb he'd do what Zlatan did to Milan, which is completely change the culture of the club. Watch Zlatan's ferocious table turning speech in the locker room for an example.

But the media has definitely manipulated how he is seen and wrongfully so as beyond his unneeded comments on ten Haag I agree with all he said.

Was also unnecessary his passive aggressive hit on him by naming Zidane, Carlo, Max and SAF as top coaches in shade of that, for only liking people who like him is quite frankly insecure as it does make sense for he was always close to players and figures who sucked up to him always.

He basically told them that their club is being run like a circus and that the entire club structure needs replacement from top to bottom...which I'm sure deep down, they all completely agree with him.

Also, no need to call for his head because he's already gone. When you publicly attack the owners, all the powerful executives at the club and the manager, it means you have gone for war and that you already know that your days at your club is already numbered.

I'd focus more on his message and less on him if I were a United fan.

Cristiano Ronaldo is to leave Manchester United by mutual agreement, with immediate effect.

The club thanks him for his immense contribution across two spells at Old Trafford.#MUFC

It feels like the right time to seek a new challenge.

I wish Man Utd all the best”. pic.twitter.com/rQTxEIjrLA

Chelsea's new owners could want a statement signing but he's clearly finished in the PL

Bayern could use the marketing but claimed several times he wasnt compatible with them or something

Serie A would be the move for longevity

Napoli were interested over the summer but heh would, again, have to slash dem wages

Nah Kompany is mocking it about Ronaldo pic.twitter.com/5ISrGGPZh1

Knowing how much of a stats whore he is, I think he's setting his sight on the 1,000 career goals record. He can only achieve that playing in a lesser league.

I think he is very paranoid of Messi overtaking him on CL goals. He will still try to go to a CL team.

It affects several aspects of his career, from choice of clubs to salarial demands to selfishness on the field and also attempts to have more visibility. Only to surpass Messi in whatever category you can think of. That's why you can see him doing stupid baby shark publicities in Asia.

Can't remember which poster insisted that this billionaire is strictly motivated by money. But i think this narrative is debunked now.
