Manchester United's Current Circumstance Provides Validation For Former Manchester United Players- The Cristiano Ronaldo Saga (Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo Return and Departure Addressed) - Part 5

However, the reasonable struggle and keep up with the pace of the modern-day football game in England and Europe which had been experienced by Cristiano Ronaldo during his return to Manchester United simply presented a non-conducive situation for the Manchester United team which had and continues to establish massive progression under Erik Ten Hag.  

 

 

 

 

 

The Manchester United hierarchy ultimately voted yes to the decision of putting an end to part of the three-year rebuild project which was meant to accommodate the presence of 35-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo as the anticipated cherry on the top of a well-constructed Manchester United team who has successfully propelled themselves back into the conversation of football clubs capable of attaining top success in modern day football under the managerial era of Erik ten Hag. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As has been mentioned, Manchester United continues to carry a handful of issues within the current team with the need for a creative central midfielder understood to be one of the issues which the club must address during the upcoming 2023 summer transfer window.  

 

 

 

While Christian Eriksen has proven to be an effective player who has generated a level of improvement in the Manchester United midfield and the recent inclusion of Marcel Sabitzer on a season-long loan deal from German side Bayern Munich will continue to be a welcome improvement to the Manchester United midfield at least until the end of the current season, the massive career which Danish international Christian Eriksen has a must for himself so far before l Christian Eriksen's arrival at Manchester United proven to be a major indicator that Christian Eriksen is a player whose value shines bright when the Danish international is injected into the Manchester United midfield as Manchester United has certainly improved his build-up play since the partnership of Christian Eriksen and Casimiro was established at the heart of the central midfield. 

 

 
 

 

However, the lack of limited service which was provided to Cristiano Ronaldo during his time add Manchester United certainly proves that more work needs to go into the Manchester United midfield if Manchester United is to truly present itself to be a team capable of achieving top success and the recent difficulty displayed by Manchester United to create clear cut opportunities for strikers from a direct approach emerging as a result of a direct pass or as a result of essential me to that ability to simply carry the ball and take players on to draw attention to open space for the striker subsequently delivering a pass to the striker has been a football strategy which is  severely lacking at Manchester United and the lack of direct, intrusive, creative play displayed by the Manchester United midfielders had simply proving to be a reoccurring situation which further damaged Cristiano Ronaldo's return at  
 

 

 

 

 

 

While the lack of direct creative plays which had been provided for Manchester United strikers in the early stages of the current campaign had presented the case that Cristiano Ronaldo's short  stint return at Manchester United was not to be blamed entirely on Cristiano Ronaldo, the inability which Cristiano Ronaldo had displayed to blend into the modern day style of football displayed at Manchester United subsequently proved that Cristiano Ronaldo and Manchester United simply we're no longer compatible on the football pitch which made the original question attached to the return of Cristiano Ronaldo as Manchester United a valid topic which had been ignored from the start 

 

 

 

 

 

However, the closing chapter of the Cristiano Ronaldo era at Manchester United proved to provide a clear validation to the projection which current Dutch manager Erik Ten Hag had discreetly made about the limited efficiency which the return of Cristiano Ronaldo will and ultimately had implemented within the Manchester United team.

The warning suggestions which had originally presented by Erik ten Hag as the Dutch manager had stated that his idea of desired striker who can lead Manchester United certainly did not include Cristiano Ronaldo as Erik Ten Hagg is understood to have discreetly suggested to the Manchester United hierarchy that the existence of Cristiano Ronaldo within the Manchester United starting eleven will drastically deplete the rate of football Manchester United can implement on the pitch.  

While the euphoria of having a legend of Manchester United football club in Cristiano Ronaldo's return to Manchester United was a great, euphoric, experience for the Manchester United circle, the reality is that Cristiano Ronaldo's return has symbolized the current state Manchester United find themselves at which is that Manchester United has evolved past the previous football delivered in the past history of Manchester United with Manchester United needing to look forward to the future and lead the past behind in the search for future glory and success.
