Rio Ferdinand admits Manchester United have let down Cristiano Ronaldo

Apropos Speaking on Football Joe’s YouTube channel, Ferdinand said United really would have struggled without Ronaldo.
“On a personal level, he does what Ronaldo does: he scores goals; he wins games and without Ronaldo they can’t get past the knockout stages of the Champions League. He’s scored winning goals multiple times, and he’s kept his side of the bargain. I think the club obviously hasn’t fulfilled its role of giving it the platform to succeed,” said Ferdinand.
He continued:
“It just goes to show you that great players who are talkatively the best players of all time – and he’s one of them – you can’t do it alone; you need teammates to help you and it shows that. We have to wait and behold (Ronaldo in Ten Hag’s Plans). We have to wait for that and give it time.”
Ronaldo was United’s top scorer with 24 goals in all competitions. That included 18 Premier League goals, with only Golden Boot winners Son-Heung Min and Mohamed Salah (23) scoring more goals than the 37-year-old.
Tony Cascarino advises the Red Devils to sign Ruben Neves

The Red Devils are looking to strengthen their midfield and have their eyes on both the Portuguese and Frenkie de Jong.
Apropos Speaking on talkSPORT, Cascarino said Neves would bring quality to Erik ten Hag’s midfield.
“He (Neves) is a really good ball-playing midfielder; He’s got a great shot from distance but he would undoubtedly improve United’s midfield.”
He continued:
“They lack style in that department, to me, because McTominay does a great job in a lot of ways; Fred can also do things others can’t, but technically they’re not the best at making things happen for United. I think it was sorely missed.”
Noel Whelan tips Aaron Wan-BIssaka to join AS Roma
<img loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" width="1920" height="1327" data-img="https://9to5fortnite.com/de/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/1653791498_571_Zusammenfassung-der-Transfernachrichten-von-Manchester-United-Red-Devils-haben-Cristiano.jpg" alt="Aaron Wan-Bissaka (links) könnte diesen Sommer entlassen werden." data-img-low="https://9to5fortnite.com/de/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/1653791498_571_Zusammenfassung-der-Transfernachrichten-von-Manchester-United-Red-Devils-haben-Cristiano.jpg" src="data:image/svg+xml,”/>Former Leeds United striker Noel Whelan has advised Aaron Wan-Bissaka to join AS Roma this summer. The Manchester United right-back is expected to leave Old Trafford after recently dropping the pecking order.
Speak with football insider, Whelan said Wan-Bissaka would fit well under Jose Mourinho at Roma. He said:
“I think somewhere like Roma. I think he fits an Italian style because he’s very defensive. Jose Mourinho would know him so something like this could work for Wan-Bissaka. Otherwise I don’t know.”

“You are looking at the middle of the Premier League table. I don’t think he will go to your Liverpools or Man Citys or Tottenhams. Conte wants an attacking full-back and he (Wan-Bissaka) isn’t. I think that’s the problem and why he might struggle to find a club.”
Wan-Bissaka has made 20 Premier League appearances this season but has not featured in United’s last four games.
