What if Manchester United did not sign Ronaldo?
A question asked by football fans in general and Manchester United fans in particular, after some of them saw that Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the reasons for the poor performance of "Manchester" this season.
Yesterday, Thursday, “Almano” drew 1-1 with its guest Chelsea in the Premier League thanks to a goal scored by Ronaldo, and the “Red Devils” lost 1-3 last Saturday from Arsenal, and the “Don” also managed to score a goal, but that was not enough to prevent this tenth defeat. season.
Ronaldo also scored the last 5 goals scored by his team, which is the highest scorer in the top five teams in the Premier League this season with 8 goals.

Despite the poor level of the team, Ronaldo - whom his coach Ralph Rangnick said that we rely on Ronaldo more - managed to score 23 goals in 37 games since his return to "Old Trafford", including 17 in the Premier League, and Mohamed Salah (22 goals). He is the only one to have scored more goals than the Madeira missile in the Premier League.
But what if we decide to let go of the goals Ronaldo has scored this season?
The team finished last in its group in the Champions League.
He failed to qualify for the second round of the continental competition.
The team would have been only 10 points from the relegation zones in the Premier League.
