On 6 January, Manchester United CEO Woodward left. The British media "Times" reported how C Ronaldo, who is currently in Manchester United's controversial new signing and team history, was judged by Woodward, then a Manchester United spokesman, to be able to achieve things and start to invest. According to the British media, Manchester United insisted that buying C Ronaldo was not to cut off Manchester City, but to see that he was still at his peak!

The Times said: Cristiano Ronaldo suddenly signaled that he wanted to leave Juve again a week before the transfer market closed, and his new owner looked very close to Manchester City, Manchester United's city rivals, which came from the certainty of Juve and Mendes. It is worth mentioning that among Manchester United stakeholders, it is not only former Manchester United head coach Ferguson who is still on the board of directors, but also Manchester United CEO Woodward.

United, under Woodward's control, have wanted Cristiano Ronaldo for the past few years and have contacted Mendes every year. According to another media report, Manchester United even planned to buy the team's all-time star with Real Madrid, who abandoned Cristiano Ronaldo, four years ago in 2018, but was rejected by the then Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho. The Times said that when Woodward recommended Ronaldo to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer last year, the latter was not much interested, and the positions he needed most were wingers and centre-backs.

Why did Manchester United buy Ronaldo? It is generally believed that Ferguson wants, and that Manchester United management wants to use Ronaldo to sell tickets and shirts. But the Times gives a new statement: Manchester United bought Cristiano Ronaldo because he studied him at the top! The Times pointed out that Woodward consulted manchester United's analysis department and came to the conclusion that Cristiano Ronaldo was still at the peak after all the data and formula research.

However, the Times added that it is not clear whether Manchester United's analysis department has studied Ronaldo's situation of pressing for high positions. It seems that United have not studied Ronaldo's defensive attitude, so they are now taking responsibility for their lack of seriousness. C Ronaldo likes to walk so that both Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Lonnick feel overwhelmed, and Manchester United star Neville has directly attacked C Ronaldo for walking, resulting in United can only play counter-attack, and the experience is not as rich as a weak brigade.

Although Ole Gunnar Solskjaer began to have a general interest in Cristiano Ronaldo, he also believes that Ronaldo's joining Manchester United is good, in addition to being able to score goals, he can also lead the dressing room. Apparently, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer also misjudged, and after United's loss to Wolves, the entire dressing room was exposed as a gang, with as many as 17 of them unhappy and 11 players wanting to leave the team. As the leader, boss and captain, C Ronaldo faced the disaster of the locker room falling apart a few months before his return to Manchester United, and his spiritual attributes and leadership temperament were also seriously questioned by the outside world. A veteran Premier League player Abon Lajo said: If I can decide, I will sell Ronaldo in the summer and help Greenwood, Sancho and Rashford.

The Times also reported on United's other mentality of buying Ronaldo, not to cut off Manchester City. Manchester United also unilaterally knew that they were competing with Manchester City when conducting a thorough survey of Cristiano Ronaldo. But United insisted that they were only buying Ronaldo, not because Ronaldo wanted to go to Manchester City and was forced to cut his huss. But the Times

Said that although Manchester United believe they are competing with Manchester City, Manchester City has always said that they are not interested in Cristiano Ronaldo.
