My point is that some teams do very well if they're built around a superstar. We are not one of those teams.

Exactly, remember Ronaldo had peak Modric, kroos , casemiro and benzema at Real. Thats a whole different galaxy than what he has had to work with here.

The problem is we signed Ronaldo, but we didnt build a functioning team around him. It's honestly really poor planning from our management.

On top of that our coaches have been clueless.

I say cut our losses and put this experiment to bed. Rebuild the team with a solid foundation again.

It sucks that we could not win CL with him but it is what it is. We cant expect one single player to bring us glory while the rest of the team is totally unbalanced.

Ya he ain’t living so tuz better to be used him smashing records next season again. Must be total pain in the ass, especially when he plays for us. Imagine if he was playing for RM, the tears.

Again, no one is hating on Ronaldo, but we've clearly regressed as a team. It would be nice to not have to rely on one player 80% - 90% of the time. We are so predictable, and it shows in our play and our results.

For the amount of money we are paying him, we have vastly underachieved as a team, both domestically and abroad. Again, it's not a slight, just straight facts.

Blame the rest of the team, not CR7.

Thanks.

Are you sure we have underachieved? We sold our whole middlefield, some retired and rest were sold, our core got older and all we had was Matuidi, Emre Can, Khedira, Bonucci, Danilo, Benta, Berna etc. being constant starters. Literally all freebies or players we would not get more than 15m.

Could be even that we’ve overachieved. The expecation to win UCL is there, but there’s no favourite ever, just because how many top teams are competiting from it. We won our Scudettos with our core and Ronaldo coming to the Italy opened the gates for many others. Our league just became more interesting globally, he generated the hype and money where other teams benefitted as well.

We’re just in transistion period where RM will be, where Barca is and where other teams with strong cores will be. It’s never easy and actually winning 9 scudettos in row, them becoming more and more difficult and us losing more inevitable day by day, because it ain’t scottish premier league.

We’ve overachieved for quite a while.
