With Cristiano Ronaldo, Manchester United can qualify for the Champions League? It's right to get rid of Cristiano Ronaldo! It's all to blame for Ten Hag's own lack of courage

Manchester United is out of the Champions League group, only 6th in the Premier League, many people think that if Ronaldo had not been ousted, if Ronaldo was still there, the result would not have been so miserable, so is this really the case?

Cristiano Ronaldo once saved Manchester United in the Champions League

In his first spell at Manchester United, Cristiano Ronaldo scored with a header in the Champions League final to help the team win the Big Ears Cup, although he also missed a penalty shootout. And after returning to the Theatre of Dreams, despite his advanced age, he can once again save Manchester United's Champions League dreams.

In the group stage of the 2021-22 Champions League, Manchester United lost 1-2 to Bern Juniors in the first round, and Ronaldo opened the scoring. 2-1 Villarreal in the second round, Ronaldo scored in the 95th minute.

In the third round, Cristiano Ronaldo scored the winning goal in the 81st minute after falling behind by two goals at home and reversing Atalanta 3-2. In the fourth round, the Nerazzurri were beaten up twice, with United falling behind twice and the president equalising twice, including a 91st-minute equaliser.

In the fifth round, Cristiano Ronaldo scored the first goal to help Manchester United win 2-0, qualify one round ahead of schedule, and finally win the top spot in the group.

In five appearances in the group stage, Cristiano Ronaldo scored six goals and Manchester United scored 11 goals in total. Without him, the Red Devils would have taken five points less and could have been out of the group as they have done this season!

Cristiano Ronaldo was kicked out, was Manchester United wrong?

So if Ronaldo is still around, will Manchester United be able to qualify for the Champions League this season? This premise is wrong, because his departure from the Theater of Dreams is the result of his own hands, and it is not wrong for Manchester United and Ten Hag to get rid of him.

Last summer, it was Ronaldo who took the initiative to ask to leave Manchester United, when he was still the top scorer, but Mendes did not find a home for him;

It was Cristiano Ronaldo who left the pitch early in the final warm-up game, and it was he who refused the manager's request to let him come on as a substitute in the game against Tottenham, and left the pitch early, which caused a very bad impact and was disrespectful to the Manchester United fans who watched the game.

It was Cristiano Ronaldo who publicly bombarded Ten Hag and Manchester United in an exclusive interview, claiming that he was not respected, and this is precisely the biggest disrespect for "his beloved club".

The reason why it has reached this point is because Ronaldo has always wanted to leave again, and Manchester United can no longer get used to him, and the two sides can only break up.

Staying in Europe, it will be difficult for Ronaldo to score 50 goals

A year later, Ronaldo has scored 50 goals and is tied for the top scorer of the year. This is indeed a great achievement, but I have to admit that the level of confrontation and defense in the Saudi league is obviously difficult to compare with the top five European leagues, so if he still stays in Europe, it will be difficult for him to score 50 goals.

The data proves it: the last time Ronaldo scored more than 50 goals in a single calendar year was in 2017, when he was only 32 years old. Neither Real Madrid, Juventus nor Manchester United have ever achieved this achievement.

Of course, Ronaldo has indeed received enough respect in Saudi Arabia, it can be said that he enjoys all the glory and wealth, there is not so much pressure from public opinion, he is more relaxed mentally, and his physical condition is better adjusted, which is conducive to him to play at a better level.

The fault lies with Ten Hag: he is not angry

Ousting Cristiano Ronaldo, Ten Hag managed to establish himself in the dressing room and eventually led Manchester United to the Carabao Cup. However, this did not become the starting point of his success, but a turning point in his failure.

In the centre-forward position, Ten Hag has not brought in a new Cristiano Ronaldo, neither Weghorst nor Hojlen can do the job. In the winger position, Antony, whom he signed heavily, was in a mess, and Marcus Rashford was in a rapid slump after a season of explosion, and he was not able to reactivate.

In midfield, Ten Hag slapped himself in the face and had to reuse Harry Maguire and Scott McTominay, who were to be sold in the summer. After breaking his contract and letting De Gea go, Onana, whom he strongly cranked, made more and more mistakes.

In the dressing room, he once again lost control, especially for not properly handling Sancho's problems, leaving him "without the support of half of the players". Although Ten Hag denied it, looking at the fame of the reporters who broke the news, you know that there must be players leaking secrets, and it is by no means groundless.

All in all, there is no problem in getting rid of Cristiano Ronaldo, and if Ten Hag can find a good replacement, can bring in more suitable reinforcements, and do a better job in personnel management and tactical set-up, United will not be out of such a group. In the final analysis, he still blames himself for not being angry.
