Cristiano Ronaldo scored again. Manchester United captain Roy Keane said sarcastically: "He's a real problem, week after week of scoring goals, it's not good. "Who's the irony? The one who says "Cristiano Ronaldo is a Manchester United problem". In the eyes of these people, C Ronaldo has a lot of problems, a lot of "sins", without him, Manchester United would be better! However, is this really the case?
Question 1: Without Ronaldo, Would Manchester United be better?
Some people have said: Manchester United can still get the runner-up last season, this season C Ronaldo came back, almost no top four, is not his problem?
In fact, the Red Devils were able to finish second in the Premier League in large part because competitors dropped chains together. Liverpool have fallen sharply due to injuries, and Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham have also had a variety of situations, allowing Solskjaer to pick one up.
Now, all the giants have regained their strength and made a comeback, and Manchester United has immediately appeared in its original form: it is still fighting for the life of the fourth, and there is no strength to compete with the Blue Moon and the Red Army for the title.
On the contrary, without Ronaldo, United's current results will only be worse! He scored 17 Premier League goals to give the team 14 more points. Without those 14 points, the Red Devils would have only 41 points, ranking 11th in the standings, missing the top half!
Question 2: Cristiano Ronaldo suppressed the growth of young players?
Some people have said: the return of the 37-year-old C Ronaldo has deprived the young players of Manchester United of the space to grow and the opportunity to play, which does more harm than good!
So let me ask you: Do Manchester United have any young people worth developing? Marcus Rashford? Now 24 years old, no longer young, with a career single season Record of only 17 Premier League goals, as many as 37-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo, 11 goals in 37 games last season, can you expect him to play better than the president?
26-year-old Martial? When Cristiano Ronaldo didn't come, he had already played very badly, and the Premier League goal record in a single season of his career was also 17 goals. Two "talented young players", neither of them have ever scored 20+ goals, and they still blow it?
As for Greenwood, it is self-inflicted and cannot live. When he can still play, he also gets a lot of opportunities, basically starting with C Ronaldo, but shooting with his eyes closed, a unique batch, even the Manchester United fans themselves can't stand it.
So, which young genius did C Luo suppress and hinder the growth of? On the contrary, young players should cherish the opportunity to be teammates with Ronaldo, follow his example, and learn more from him, and the president's favorite is the young people who train hard.
Question 3: C Luo has unlimited firing rights, and the data is brushed out?
Someone else said: C Ronaldo's data is brushed out, and Manchester United have concentrated their offensive resources on him to have such a performance.
Let's put it this way, Ronaldo is indeed the most shot in the Manchester United team, but as the main center, there is nothing wrong with it! Averaging 3.7 shots per game is indeed the second most in the Premier League, behind Salah, but Greenwood averaged 2.7 per game and B Fee averaged 2.4 per game, not much less than him.
Ronaldo averaged 1.5 shots per game, or the second most in the Premier League, indicating that his shooting accuracy is high, not a wave shot. The expected goal was 16.09, which is less than the actual goal, indicating that he should have scored all the goals.
What's more, if your team has the all-time goalscorer in football, shouldn't it invest offensive resources on him and fully support him to score goals? Levan averaged 4.7 shots per game at Bayern, Kylian Mbappe made 4.2 shots in Paris, Benzema made four at Real Madrid, and Inmobile averaged 3.7 shots per game at Lazio.
Question 4: Cristiano Ronaldo is too selfish and only knows that he scores goals?
Some people have said that C Ronaldo is too selfish, only thinking about scoring goals himself, regardless of teammates, the ball is not happy if he does not pass to him.
This season in the Premier League, Ronaldo has delivered 3 assists, tied for fifth in the team, as many as Sancho, Fred and Nemanja Matic have 1 more than him; the expected number of assists is actually 4.3, but teammates have wasted opportunities.
Cristiano Ronaldo has created 7 major scoring opportunities, the second in the team, second only to B Fee, in the Premier League and Manchester City's Jesus, Chelsea's Reese James as many, only 1 less than Foden, Saka, 2 times less than Mane, Son Heung-min - please ask: This is also called selfishness?
Question 5: C Ronaldo does not love defense, high position forcing is not OK?
High-level pressing is indeed C Ronaldo's "problem". But after all, he is 37 years old, and it is indeed impossible to run and fight every minute. However, when it is time to press, he will definitely press and will also beckon his teammates to press.
When it was time to defend, we could see him heading into the penalty area, sliding to the sideline, and even to the left-back position. In terms of professionalism, no one can question the president.
What's more, Manchester United's high pressing is not a problem for C Ronaldo alone, the young teammates should have helped him share, run more, press harder, but either unwilling to run, or will not run, resulting in the collapse of the entire system, even Lonnick gave up treatment.
Question 6: Without Cristiano Ronaldo, can United buy a better striker?
Someone else said: If Manchester United didn't get him back and didn't give him the first high salary in the Premier League, he could have bought a younger and better striker.
Let's put it this way, younger than Cristiano Ronaldo, there is. Better than him?
Cristiano Ronaldo has 17 goals in the Premier League, salah has scored more goals than he has, Son Heung-min has as many as he does, so will the Pharaohs come to Manchester United? Is Brother Sun willing to come?
In all competitions, Cristiano Ronaldo recorded 23 goals, of all the Premier League players, it is second only to Salah, and Mahrez, so will the Manchester City Polo King come?
Levan with 48 goals, Benzema with 41 goals, Mbappe with 33 goals, Man lenovo do not want to think. Nkunku, who scored 30 goals, is pursued by all major giants. Vlahovic, who scored 27 goals, is juve to buy C Ronaldo's successor, which is 4 more than the president. What about Haaland? 25 balls! And people don't want to come to Manchester United, to come to Manchester City.
Núñez of Benfica? Lazio's Immobile? Ben Yeddell of Monaco? Coming to a higher level of the Premier League, their performance may not be as good as in the Portuguese Premier League, Serie A and Ligue 1.
So, Manchester United does not buy C Luo, who can they buy? Which better striker to buy that has proven itself?
In short, C Ronaldo has never been a problem for Manchester United, in turn, Manchester United should be glad to let C Ronaldo return last summer, otherwise, this season will only be worse!
