Utd is the most toxic club and environment I've seen in my lifetime.
They literally go through the same cycle over and over again since SAF left.
They get a new manager, sign some 'exciting' players, start well, drop off, find a person or a couple of them to blame, then sack the manager, hire a new one, sign some more players etc.
The club is in it's longest run without a trophy in over 5 decades. They've blamed Di Maria, Van Gaal, Mourinho, Pogba, De Gea, now Ronaldo. Same story over and over again.
Ronaldo wanted to leave in the summer, begged them to let him go amid family problems too. ETH said he can't let him go, he is very important for him. As soon as the season started he acts as a tough guy by benching Ronaldo (who was very good last year) and treating him as an 18 year old. He then suspends him, then starts him and gives him the captain's armband and then again benches him.
CR didn't say a single thing in that interview that if I was a Utd fan wouldn't have liked to hear. Facts from start to finish.
Utd fans and players have the perfect opportunity to pile on the Glazers now and force them out of the club for good, but again they can't see further than their nose.
I don't doubt Ronaldo's words come from a personal, egotistical standpoint. Doesn't make him any less right.
Fans from the outside think he's doing something wrong and unprofessional, that Utd is just another club going through a difficult period etc., but they're not. The only thing holding them afloat is still the allure they built with SAF and all the sponsorships they signed over the years. That's slowly running out too.
More and more clubs are getting smarter and better in EPL and that TV money is only getting bigger. For years now they've been selling 10 plus players every summer and replacing them with 3-4. Glazers are literally just saving money on them.
But I'm sure THIS time all their problems will be solved once the usual suspect leaves the club.
