the probability of achieving more in Man United was there because as at when Ronaldo left, he had played in two semi-finals and two UCL finals including winning it once. Man United still got to another with Rooney leading the charge just two years later after Ronaldo left, the "quality" in Real Madrid were still picking their noses.

He had already seen a 42-goal season playing as a wing-forward and already broken the hoodoo of an EPL player, rising above politics to deservedly win the WPOTY. He didn't need the "quality" of Real Madrid who were getting analy-zed by the likes of Roma AS in two rounds.

The United squad was still better than Real Madrid up till SAF last season with the club. We all saw how toothless Madrid was when pitched against United in the UCL knockout stage even with Ronaldo on their books.

Don't discount how many quality players would have preferred a move to Old Trafford because a player like Ronaldo is there, and I also do not think SAF would have retired with such quality player on his books.

Great career he's had, yet he'd have had it with or without Real Madrid; and even better if he remained in Man United.
I do not agree mami. Before Ronaldo left for Madrid, we had a better squad than after he left. If he won just 1 UCL during that period, why do you think he will win more than the number he won at Madrid when the quality in our team reduced? During the three year period that Madrid won back to back UCL how was the quality of our squad? Madrid had the best squad in football during that period while we were struggling with 6th 5th 4th positions. Ronaldo was a very integral part of Madrid's UCL dominating team but please stop saying he singlehandedly gave them the UCL, he was only a piece, albeit a very important piece. Ronaldo's movement to Madrid was mutually beneficial to him and Madrid. Without him Madrid may not have had so much success but also he wouldn't have had so much success if he didn't move. Saying he would have gotten all he did and more with United is simply a lie.

Why is it so tough to see the point?

Players like Ronaldo and Messi are game-changing players.

This is why some years back when there were rumors of United signing Griezmann, I and Elampiro didn't support it because Griezmann is not a game-changing player, he's good but not who you can hope on when things get really tough.

When things get tough at Barca, who do they pin their hopes on?

Back then at Madrid, who do they hope on?

When the team loses, who gets trolled? Aren't there 11 players, so why does 1 in particular get trolled?

Even in normal street football, there's always that one guy folks love to have on their team.
I don't think you are getting me. I know Ronaldo is a game changing player, but no matter how much he steps up to carry the team, he would achieve nothing if the team doesn't play their part too. If Ronaldo is at his A game and he scores 5 goals, but the defence is at level Zero and they concede 6 how will the team win? Ronaldo is very important but he can't do it if his teammates are poor. Football is never a one-man game no matter how good a player is. Do you think Ronaldo can ever win the UCL for a team like Villareal? Ofcourse not, because villareal's team is not good enough. Ronaldo complemented Madrid and vice versa. A good player will go nowhere without a good team. Is Messi not also a game changing player? Why has he not replicated the same success Ronaldo had with Madrid with Barca in the UCL? It is simply because his teammates refused to play their parts.


Bros the entire team gets trolled. The reason players like Ronaldo and Messi are trolled is because of the rivalry between them. Some people think Messi is the GOAT while some stand for Ronaldo so when any of the both team loses the Rival fans pick on the star man but ultimately, the whole team is trolled.

Okay.
Defenders aren't banned from making tackles however it doesn't change the fact that VVD is still the best in the business.

He is good, but still has to prove it over time and in on the biggest stages.
He has had just 12 months of being in the eye of the storm so I am not so sure he deserves all the adulation he gets.

For the time being, he is the best and is deserving of all the adulations coming his way.
I agree that for him to be mentioned amongst the greats, he has to do it over time.

You are contradicting yourself. The adulation he is getting includes people saying he is as good or even better than all time greats.
If you are saying he deserves all the adulation then that means you are mentioning him amongst the all time greats.

P.S he is good, but the hype is a bit overboard and it looks like the guy has started feeling himself.

At the moment, he deserve to be praised however, it's too early to start the comparisons.
It's like Salah last season, he was deserving of all the praise however, when Dayo said he was the best African in the EPL history, a lot of folks objected and that's same for VVD.

Fair enough. VVD is doing well for now but people should chill on the comparison with people that were world class for 10-15 years.

We didn't have a DOF during SAF's time.... Is that really the solution? Or we need actual soccer loving people at the helm of affairs. Woody and the Glazer guys are businessman and are in for the money side of things that the fame and identity of the club can bring. All other things are secondary.
Don't be surprised if we don't make any sensible purchases this summer.

It’s easier to bring in soccer loving DoFs ( undecided) than to replace Ed Woodward.

He’s the only constant figure post-Ferguson and look how things were managed.
