Ronaldo is our boy no matter how much u talk about him, his legacy will never end and he will keep shining .
Then he should retire in peace..
@@prakashm1468 PenalMessian logic😂🤡
I'm sure he'll be back home, probably not as a player, but I'm sure he'll come back one day. He doesn't speak a lot, but he surely knows this club a lot, believe me.
Problem with Ronaldo is because he is a superhuman, a 5 stars elite player
@@prakashm1468 A year later he has more goals than any man u player since he left as a 37 year old.
Back then, Ten Hag used to favor Martial over Ronaldo, I hope he is happy with that decision.
I would be happy with that decision Ronaldo is a disgrace
@@redeye9631Ronaldo is better & fitter at 39 than Martial through his 20’s
@@redeye9631lmao
@@redeye9631 a toxic fan from a certain fanbase spotted
@Fumblingthroughlifeonline I would rather play peter crouch up front than both of them
scholes was the guy that i saw being the most spot on on this topic. its not so much about the fact that ronaldo wasnt playing, it was the fact that ten hag had said earlier that he didnt want to disrespect ronaldo by putting him in when they were losing 4-0, but then decided that throwing him in in garbage time wasnt disrespectful
I love how the class of 92 players never fail to bring sir Alex into any conversation ever.
Forever living in the past lol
@@Scepticool1 why not,they made history with that club,obviously they will try to connect a bit
@@Scepticool1 at least they’ve got one 😉
@@2risquejunior538 so have man united😉
Maybe total respect for what great Scottish manager did for there lives and careers .. maybe
After the interview, scholes were spot on in this. This is exactly what Ronaldo felt. He was disrespected when they wanted him to come out for 3 minutes, JUST BECAUSE.
😢
Good riddance
Absolutely spot on, everyone wants Ronaldo to be the average player… he’s not! And if I want to wreck the career of a legend and imply that he’s no use anymore, the way he’s been treated is exactly how I would. Don’t bring him into an important match even while getting whooped 6 goals but bring him on to play 2 minutes in an already won game. Kill any confidence he or anyone else have left in him and Ronaldo resists it and I ain’t mad at that at all.
Exactly!
Ten hagg such a disrespect to the 🐐
Haag is hateful. It shows all over his face. He had never liked Ronaldo and finding himself as his manager was the time to kill him. I hope he's happy with his hateful acts now.
Well said!!
😂😂
This reminds me of what Zlatan said. Many in and around united are too focused on what Ferguson would do. Those times are over. EtH is in charge now and lets back him. Didn’t Fergie ship out Becks when he started acting like a diva?
He dealt with Scholes, Keane, Cantona and Beckham...Scholes and Keane have amnesia to protect their boy.
Don’t forget staam
@@GuinessOriginal or Paul Ince
Very true. This why we kept changing managers. We still live in the past.
Yeah Fergie did the right thing, he dont say like we still need him, he important to the club, etc, just offer him to other club, that how to treat a player, dont give a player a beautiful words and than put him on bench, thats bully.
Honestly, he’s 37 and he walked out. If Paul pogba did this last year these same ex players would be leading a march to his house. Ridiculous
Bro the issue was they said no consistency he was a different Pogba in the French team… Ronaldo’s consistent everywhere he goes
@@akz3778 yeah but Ronaldo still walked out when he shouldn't have, ever player on the team in situations like that should be treated the same
Well... it's Ronaldo. He has built up many friendships over the years with lots of people and has built up a very loyal fanbase to him. Doesn't matter what he does... many people will still strongly support him.
The point is 37 year old Ronaldo is better than every other attacker in that team. He was top goal scorer for us last season in one of his worst seasons ever. Like he proved last season and today, he can still score goals so ofcourse he's gonna be angry at being asked to come on in with 2 minutes left in a dead game while the likes of Elanga are getting more game time.
Exactly!!! I hate that we are making a big deal over the fact that Alex Ferguson wouldn’t of done it…. Well guess what he is not Alex Ferguson he is Eric ten hag!!!! We need to move on
I disagree. Furguson turfed Keane out once his best years were behind him. Furguson was utterly brutal once players were over the hill.
He turfed him out for slating his fellow players in his book that’s why he was moved on. Ferguson brought players like Henrik Larson well in his 30s to secure the title
Ferguson keep wanyne Rooney when he force he want to move
also Ferguson thinks of ronaldo as his own born son. So I doubt this type of situation would have ever happened in the first place
look what happened to Paul Ince had a meeting and by the time he got in his car he'd been sold to inter.
@@DrSprigs Yeah I remember when Alx Ferguson sold Ince to Inter, best decison ever made
This isn’t SAF though, Ten Hag is his own man and clinging on to the past and comparing people to SAF is one reason why United are in decline
Facts. It’s getting pretty embarrassing for untied now
He answered a question put to him. Simple.
@@jaciccccc how is it embarrassing? Strange comment
True, different times.
Well said 👏🏼
Literally not true. Fergie got rid of Van Niestelrooy for refusing to come on.
That's not the reason Ruud was sold, stop talking BS.
@@salsabila786 but it was his attitude for why he was sold
Who
Scholes said, Sir Alex would not of asked a senior player like Ronaldo to come on with 3 minutes left and the game already won, rather he would of requested a youngster to come on...take a careful listen again .
@@LoyalFan9383 complete BS, he was sold as Fergie wanted to evolve from in the box target CF to quick transition front 3, which he did with Saha during Ruud's last season. We saw Man Utd do the same under Fergie with the mobile front 3 of Tevez, Rooney and Ronaldo. Berbatov when he was brought in became the false 9 for runners to play off and around. The anomaly was Van Persie but he had an amazing previous season and still mobile enough for the new fluid front 3 Fergie wanted.
Ruud asked to be sold after being dropped at cup final as he knew he was not part of Man Utd new system.
"The minute a Manchester United player thought he was bigger than the manager, he had to go" - Sir Alex Ferguson when he let Beckham go to Madrid. He would not have tolerated a 37 year old veteran doing what Ronaldo did.
End of
He would never have brought a 37 year old Ronaldo onto the pitch for the last 2 minutes of a game they are winning 2-0
He also would have never allowed to get himself hassled on keeping an unhappy 37 year old veteran who clearly wanted to leave, just because the board wanted to have a marketing asset.
Ronaldo’s bigger than united
@@thomasneedham7912 penaldo is nowhere near the size of manu he’s half the player messi is
The relation between sir Alex and ronaldo is like father to son.
of course.
He is a second father for Ronaldo, knowing what Ronaldo thinks of his actual father
So we should call Alex, penaldo sr ???
Maybe in your fanboy delusions it is.
Lol ronaldo don't care about sir alex
People need to realise ferguson isnt the manager anymore
More like "All the united old hags like G.Nev, Scholes etc" need to realise that
Ruud Van Nistelrooy did something similar.
He never played for the club again, lets not pretend sir alex wouldnt do it
That was NOT the reason for Van being sold, his time was up, United were rebuilding at that point especially upfront.
@@leonajames5517 same thing we need to do here, ronaldos too old
the problem is Ferguson never treat a player like ETH did, if he dont like a player he offer him to other club, Ferguson never say samething like he important to us, we still need him, and put that player on the bench, thats wrong, and he did that to GOAT.
@@culunchannel1978 Erik ten hag has given ronaldo lots of time to prove himself he’s played 14 games this season with only 3 goals, it’s not his fault rashford is offering more goals at the moment. The manager has no agenda against ronaldo it’s just that ronaldo is past his best and on the decline.
@@culunchannel1978 talking absolute nonsense
Sir Alex wouldn't have former players talking in the media about what he's doing. That's definite.
Not really, not now . The way media has evolved over the years everything gets highlighted, gone are the days where locker room talks stayed between the walls. Ronaldo is probably the most famous person in the world right now so anything related to him is always gonna catch attention for media outlets.
The team spirit of the old man united players is immense, Roy keane slags Ferguson off but won’t have a bad word said against his teammates
Keane and fergie been beefing for years. There’s obvious respect but keane left United badly.
Except he got fired in 2005 after spouting out bad words against his teammatss.
He would never admit that Scoles was key to the midfield in Fergies eyes. First pick.
Fergie was renowned for pushing players out by the way he treated them
Yeah? Giggs Scholes neville Ferdinand all stayed passed their prime
He was renowned for CORRECTLY getting rid of the players that were not up for it.
Yes. And that’s why he’s the best
These ex United players are all weirdly loyal, often in spite of logic and facts. It’s really weird seeing them contort themselves to back their old buddies
What the fcuk u are on Scholes is the one who is pissing over Ronaldo all the time...he just supporting him here because he can relate to that scenario...U guys r dumbshits
He also said that United isn't playing without Striker upfront meanwhile Ronaldo was playing just to insult him
"All this talk of doing what was best for United, do me a favour"
It's nice to see the bond between that group of players
Of course their gonna support each other…. I would rather have royal friends than haters that jump on u as soon u make a mistake
It's called loyalty mate
Yeah and sir Alex has been gone for 10 years, too many players and fans look back to the ferguson era and expect everything to be like that. People need to realise that is long gone
People saying fergie wouldn’t have tolerated Ronaldo literally have no clue, fergie described him as the ornament on top of a Christmas tree😂 cantona karate kicks a fan and he stood by him, ronaldo refusing to come on 2-0 up against the mighty spurs would’ve been sorted behind closed doors overnight
It could of been sorted behind close doors is correct, but Ronaldo made it public the second he began to walk out, he made it all about himself when it should of been about a brilliant performance against Spurs
@@callumrobertson5119 100% agree. The only person in the wrong was Ronaldo himself. He knew stropping off down the tunnel would create a problem and I think ETH dealt with it perfectly to show that this is a squad game and no one is bigger than / more important than the team.
@@barnettmufc77 ronaldo was in the wrong for refusing, but when eth came in he said in a press conference ronaldo was part of his plans, fast forward a month and he’s regularly benched for a winger that scored 4 last year… the disrespect started long before Ronaldo ever walked off early
It never gets mentioned that Ronaldo decided not to do pre-season. He can't expect to slip into the team without blinking and we should respect that Ten Hag is trying to impose a new style and ethos that requires more dedication from everyone
Dude ronaldo is fit 24.7 365 he dont need pre season.pre seasok is to get playerw fot after they been on holidayfor 6 weeeka.ronaldo is crazy even on holidays hes training and watchijg what he eats hes been doing that for almost last 20 yeara thats how dedictaed he is hes mad man from that point of view
😂 Like Casemiro & Antony were at Pre-season with the team right?
@@t.mblock8658 they still had pre seasons though, just not at utd
@@mohamedismaciil9239 Doesn't matter whether he's fit or not, preseason is also about trying out patterns, which players compliment each other and MATCH fitness. He skipped all of it
@@mohamedismaciil9239 yeah that's one way to go..
"Nah boss, I think I'll skip pre-season, I'm fit enough already'.
Yes, he wouldn't, he would've forced him out.
yeah and back in the day ronaldo wanted to move in 2008 but we can only sel him a year after. the same happens now.
Why do people keep saying "fergie wouldnt have done that" Bro Ten hag isnt sir Alex its a new generation stop living in the past Ten hag is the manager right now, and we stand behind him!
With all respect, holding on to the past is kind of why the club is where it is today. When it comes to our ex-players it's just poor take after poor take and serious bias. As much as I love them for what they did for the club, I honestly can't wait till they're gone (retire / fired / new management job)😔
Erik ten months
Spot on. There's a doggedly sentimental streak in these ex-Utd player pundits, always harking back to the "old days". They are fossilised.
He was your top scorer last year, at the same age as he is now !!
@@jcpfvmcgregor2499 not even last year 6 months ago.
@@jcpfvmcgregor2499 lol the fact they won't accept
Imagine scholes giving a team talk 😂
His dead baby none of united show him empathy but Liverpool fans did. Never put club infront of your family.
They're Disrespecting Ronaldo End Of Discussion
Who’s ‘they’?
Mourinhos words come to mind......" PAul scholes.. Fantastic player.. BUT as a manager.... If he can achieve half of what i did, then ill listen"
one of the problems at man united are these ex-players all taking up for there ex team mates..I back the manager and what he is trying to build.
A manager who makes a player go on the pitch with only two minutes left in the game is mocking the player it's offensive no player deserves that. It was clear he was doing everything to make him leave.
"His head goes"
No elaboration needed, Paul. That explains everything.
Imagine pushing Ronaldo out the club and replacing him with Weghorst 🤦♂️
One - Ronald was young back in the day, obviously. So, he could play every match.
Two - Erik, isn’t sir Alex. So, he can do it his way. He isn’t forced to do what sir Alex would do.
Man like Ronald uno
Scholesy said Sir Alex would not have put him on a dead game with 2 or 3 minutes to go, why ? because he knew how to manage players, ETH isn't on any level near SAF in terms of being a manager and it shows.
@@achannelforlife6263 Agreed. Time will tell on ETH. There's KARMA.
@@achannelforlife6263 🤡

So much better listening to Scholesy calmly explaining the situation here rather than having to hear Neville and Keane screaming back and forth at each other on sky sports.
I just hope Ronnie has a great World Cup and goes the whole way
Ron's n Messi in the final 🙌🏽
@football freek Thats a dream final 🥶
@@footballfreek3029 what a storyline that would be, I cant personally see it happening, but we can dream. What a perfect end to the rivalry of our generation. 🤞🤞🤞
Not with that manager they have. No structure, poor selection, poor subs, terrible in game tactical changes. Everyone points to the Euro 2016 but they barely one a game and weren’t even the top 5 teams based on performance in the competition
@@IDKwhoIam25 yess we can
All dream
Probably the best explanation from Scholesy.
This comment section aged like milk 😂
Alex had a time period that a chosen few have in a hot seat he was a true Legend that knew real football quality his decisions were good he took the matt busby mantle ...i doubt any one any were will see that time period in a hot seat ever
My man reconnecting his earpiece was better than his tackling. 😄
Ronaldo is our legend no matter what.
Scholes in his mind Sir Alex is the who invented football 👀
Lol hes proper deluded
The difference is though that ronaldo actually did get asked to be subbed on, and also he walked off when his team were winning, not losing
I don't think Ronaldo would've even dared to refuse to play if SAF was manager. Fergie was ruthless with players tho when they overstepped the mark or thought they were getting too big for their boots. Keane, Beckham, Heinze, Van Nistelrooy etc etc. Scholes was extremely lucky that Fergie didn't banish him altogether. No player should ever refuse to play for their club no matter who they are
ten hag will never win a trophy with man united mark my words
i agree@@santiagogalf
"ronaldo can't accept not being left out and wants to play every game" is complete bullshit it's just the way ten hag dealt with that situation... with zidane, pirlo, allegri and sarri they used to leave ronaldo out at some games and ronaldo was okay with that, ronaldo accepts he can't play every game.
but again zidane, pirlo, allegri and sarri would never disrespect ronaldo and bring him on with 2 minutes to go with the game comfortably won
I don't think that the manager has the right mind and eyes to see that Cristiano was actually the important part of the team. The same thing is happening now, buying flops with lots of money, no result, sell them again, blame the players, isolating the players.. that's all he is best at, 2 years lots of money spent, lots of drama, no result.
Finally a real point of view that is valid and not biased. Thank u scholes
SCHOLES IS ONE OF THEN ONES THAT ACTUALLY KNOW THIS DUDE PERSONALLY
Alex Ferguson was utterly ruthless when he had to be.
Legends putting friendship ahead of club...
I swear 😭bro
How is your club doing so far 😂😂😂
That's what we call friends ❤
Oh come off it, one of the great attributes of Sir Alex was how ruthless he could be when the time was right.
More managers should be like TH! Players have too much say because of their wealth!
If Ronaldo was given more time to get in form, he would I believe. Pepe is 2 years older, still a world class player.
😂😂
rooney is 2 years younger than ronaldo, still a world class player. oh wait...
@@DANIEL-mh2ef that's a perfect example
@@janparchanski9242 Ronaldo 50+ Goals THIS year, top 2 in Euro Qualifying goal scoring. Over 10 assists too. STILL the GOAT and BETTER NOW than ANY United player at the moment. Has more goals this year than Benzema and Neymar (both in the Saudi league) COMBINED.
How's ETH working out for United? DEAD LAST in the UCL group stage (with Ronaldo they were first). 😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
SAF will not play him in every match because of his age but SAF will not also lied to him and disrespect him in front of everyone looking at his influence and legacy.
Put the highlights on I missed the game
People against Ronaldo keeping saying "clubs bigger than the player" however, the club have shown they don't give a s*** about Ronaldo, so why should he show them any different? They've shown that even the most loyal and talented of their players is nothing to them, just a means to an end.
He ain't the most loyal, pipe down.
Fergie was managing a young player, on the way to the top. Ten Haag is managing one of the greatest players of all time. Can't compare the two.
No player is more important than the club.
We should leave these things behind now and should focus on going forward with both ETH and CR7 happy.
RESPECT LEGEND
ETH just doesnt have the experience handling world class players at the end of their career i guess. man got to where he is grooming young talented players after all
Players at end of their career have flourished well..Zlatan for e.g...but Ronaldo's problemcame with his ego.
Ole smiles and smiles....Look at what he achieved as a manager at United...
Ronaldos problem is that he thinks he is the most important person at a club.
He's always been like that.
Ronaldo thinks everything is about him and that the universe revolves around him.
Glad to see a manager put him in his place and bring him down a peg or two.
Keane? Beckham?
The in-ear hanging from Paul's ear :)
Scholars and Hargreaves nailed it....👌👌👌
Sir Alex wouldn't buy him at 37 years of age
Sir Alex played Giggs and brought Scholes out of retirement around that age.
He bought larrson and the French player who's name escapes me and they were well into their mid thirties,Ferguson allways bought a player if they could do a job for the team.

Your talking about normal players not the best player that ever been Scholes is 100 % right
With the United bias pundits its always Sir Alex wouldn't have done this/that blah blah blah, Ten Hag isn't Fergie .. thought Man United were trying to finally come out of his shadow.
Fast forward to today how is Manchester United doing? How is Ronaldo doing today?
People keep saying his 37 but at 36 he scored the most goals in man u ....
And everyone else on the team scored less because all play had to go through Ronaldo.
73 goals the seaon before.
57 goals the season he came back.
Rashford 22 shots on goal that season.
Ronaldo 110 shots on goal.
Ferguson also said Phil Jones was the best defender he had ever seen.
If a player spent the summer telling the world he wanted to leave I doubt he would have ever played for Sir Alex again!
Here we go again... Let ETH stamp his own mark on the club and stop interfering
End of an era for cr7. People just cant admit it
Finally someone says it as it is
My team Manchester United are so poorly served by these ex United pundits. I relate this to the Welsh Rugby team, another team I support, ex players from the golden era of the 70’s did nothing but criticize the players and the coaches and it was many many years before they won another grand slam then produced an era of winning under Gatland.
Man united will not win a premier league in 100 years for that betrayal Ronaldo could had win everything at man city and choose man united for respect and man united did not respect the goat!
I can understand why Cristiano did what he did and how he must be feeling, but for someone as experienced as himself he will have fully known what statement that long walk down the touchline would have been and the affect it should have and that is not acceptable for Manchester united
As good as Alex Ferguson is that point is totally irrelevant.
Ten haag is manager now and players (no matter how good they are) should respect him
Paul Scholes is the man 😎😎😎
Gotta be in the top 10 of the best midfielders ever (arguably)
yeah very arguably..
He played brilliantly, needs full game's nothing better than a scoring streak Ronnie
played briliantly? typical ronaldo fanboy and besides i doubt he wil start prem games the guy adds nothing to the game. his own team mates couldnt wait for him to score a goal and thats where hes at
Spot on Scholes.
Sir Alex got rid of Beckham and Keane for getting too big for their boots. He wouldn't play again if Fergie was in charge
If they dont want him let him go he deserves respect he has been an amazing Red Devil , He gave his all as ALWAYS ,,come on give the guy a break!!!!
Why are these ex United legends trying to stir drama that’s already been resolved?
It's BT
They dont like seeing a coach trying to demoralize a club legends. It is like kicking a loyal dog.
They’re answering questions lmao
Paul answer it perfectly....👍🏼
He was answering a God dam question
what is paul scholes trying to say..if he wants to play day in day out without respecting the manager and putting himself above the team,he can leave and go to a team where he can do that..luk at portugal fate now..he will play bcoz manager doesnt have ball to bench him even if there is a lot of talent now in form in strikers in portugal..scholes shouldnt compare anyone to saf..that is done..this is a new manager..respect how he is doing it till now..
Well said guys!!
Because all the love Fergie has for him, but Ten Hag was right and even CR7 knows it!!!
So many excuses, but no one really knows what Ronaldo was thinking in that very moment.... The world cup theory is a good one though....🤷🏽♂️
See CR7 still scoring goals at the WORLD CUP 2022 and will continue to do even further as a Age just a number!
Why would EtH wanna do what Sir Alex would have done?. He is his own man and can take his own decisions and most importantly this is his team right now.
Well Sir Alex won an awful lot. He certainly wouldn't be a bad example to follow.
"Ten Hag and Ronaldo relationship is like Scholes and his ear piece".
Non existent.
Of course Scholes knows what's going on, look what SAF did to Van Nistelrooy in what would've been his last game for Utd - all because he had a fight with CR7 in training, CR7 is the son SAF always wanted, not Darren... So he's always going to lower his standards for CR7 compared to everyone else.
Bit harsh on poor Darren there lad
Why does it matter what Fergie would have done? Ten hag is the coach, he has his own coaching style and rules.
Paul Scholes absolutely spot onn
Fergie left years ago. Let him rest in peace
Did he die
@@munashetapera2633 loooool no
He still alive,calm down 👀
Why are we talking about SAF who stopped managing the club 10 years ago? Stop living in the past. Firstly, SAF absolutely would have done the same to Ronaldo and if he wouldn't have, again, who cares? EtH is the manager now and that's all that matters. These ex-players are blinded by loyalty.
