Cristiano Ronaldo is the perfect footballer who has had a few mistakes at Manchester United so far.
Ronaldo has performed well since returning to the club, scoring nine goals in 12 games.
Despite their impressive score, United are not clicking and have only won one of their last six Premier League games.
It might not be Ronaldo’s fault, but coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is struggling to build a team around him.
The comments of the German legend Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, two-time European Cup winners, are a small warning for United about Ronaldo.
Talk to Gazzetta dello Sport Rummenigge said this week: “What was thought in Italy was also thought at Real Madrid when it was sold in 2018. Even in Spain people thought they were freeing themselves from a burden, especially an economic one. “
It should be noted that Ronaldo left Madrid after winning the Champions League. Real hasn’t failed to win it since then.
Real have no financial salary, but neither do they have goals, and Juventus is eighth in Serie A now that Ronaldo is gone.
Rummenigge praised Ronaldo’s efficiency in front of goal and his commitment to his career.
He said: “He’s a player he keeps tagging even though he’s almost 37 years old. He also has incredible physical care, I could see that with my own eyes.
“When I was visiting the Juventus Sports Center, I met him in the locker room, saw his muscles and was hit. He looked like the bust of a 22 year old. ”
A really big one
Ronaldo is a real great who has won five Champions League titles and seven national championship titles in three different countries in his career.
What he’s trying to do now is one of his biggest challenges to bring the title back to United.
It is very possible that he misjudged the extent of the challenge, and at 36 he is not yet at his peak.
There’s a lot to be done in this campaign to turn the tide, but Ronaldo isn’t going to give up until it’s mathematically impossible.
If he can lead that United side to silver this season or next year it will be one of his greatest achievements.
