Sky Sports did a RAG (Red, Amber, Green) rating of all United's signings since 2013 and to be fair it was quite interesting. They've signed some absolute dross!
I would be very interested to see what they claimed were 'Green' signings, because United's signings have been incredibly poor on balance for the last decade. They've been fueling a string of rubbish signings with commercial might for a decade, and the problem with that strategy is that eventually the music runs out once the sponsors figure out they want to be associated with excellence, not mediocrity.

Zlatan and Bruno Fernandes were the only green signings, which says a lot to me.
 


What did they expect? Ronaldo wanted to leave, he has high standards and probably wanted a few more trophies in the few years he has left as a player. Of course he is going to act out he hasn't got the time not to.

If they were wise they should try and agree to amicably cancel his contract, leaving him a free agent to find a new club and them with a 600k+ cheaper wage bill.

I think they expected loyalty from a mercenary that came to the club (when he was young) for the promise of playing time at the highest level and competing for major honors.

The problem with amicably cancelling the contract is the dead wages he would likely leave behind. It will be a sticky negotiation.

'Murica can troll.

If Chico had been born in North Georgia, and didn't have fingers too fat to wrap around a real football (one you can throw 60 yards like like John Elway or Rory Delap) he'd get 'em as mad as 3YL does. You folks are touchy about your footy. I'm enjoying Coach's troll.

If Ted Lasso could coach, he'd be Three Year Letterman and wouldn't have to travel over an ocean to find a team. Elon never misses an opportunity, that's why he's Elon.
