If he had meft for Manchester City, Ronaldo would have won the highest goal scorer and also the Champions League last season.
But moving to Manchester United thwarted a lot of things for him, he doesn't consider retirement anytime soon but one thing is sure, Ronaldo will have his last world Cup this year representing Portugal national team.
Goals will come, Manchester United are doing everything possible to raise the standard's, they have brought in quality players knowing more will slide in also. Erik Ten Hag needs time at Manchester United and also funds, Manchester United will be back to Glory day's.
On what basis are you saying that if Cristiano joined Manchester City he would get the top goalscorer award in the Champions League? I know he is the best player ever, but what you are saying in my opinion is too much and has no basis. However he has decided to rejoin Manchester United, no one can guarantee that if he goes to Manchester City it will be better for his career.
Maybe the performance of the Manchester City team was better, but when it comes to individuals I think it's a different matter.
No matter how much you think Ronaldo has made, how much you think Messi has made or Neymar likewise, those guys are still concerned about what they recieve. They are not ready to do charity work with their career. They will always care for the pay. If they won't care for the pay, Messi wouldn't have left Barcelona and also Ronaldo would have reduced his pay to leave Manchester United this closed window.
Agreed, that's why messi was going to the PSG. Money is the main aim why they are playing football. They can't live without money. I think that those who are asking about charity must know that if these days there are not free things.
Everything needs money. The transfer amounts of ronaldo already decreased a lot. I expect this may continue if he was rarely playing for the club.
Less time to play means his performance may go down as well.
There is no denying that money is one of the reasons why they are here besides their love of football. But now maybe that priority has changed with what they got so far. Of course they have achieved all of that from the results of their hard work so far, and it has paid off with the achievements and nominal money they get. But I think now they have prioritized other things, like Ronaldo for example wanting to retire at his boyhood club signaling that their interests are now different.
