'GREATEST!': Fans Buzz as Cristiano Ronaldo's Impressive 2021/22 Season Stats with Man Utd Resurface
Supporters are abuzz as Cristiano Ronaldo's remarkable 2021/22 season stats with Manchester United resurface, sparking admiration for star's accomplishments.
Cristiano Ronaldo is perhaps the best Manchester United player of all time, as he is the last ever player from Manchester United not but also the whole Premier League to win a Ballon d’Or in 2008. He rocked the football world under Sir Alex Ferguson and contributed significantly to the team's victory. His comeback in 2021 had a significant influence on the club's success. Despite his second stint with the team being terminated owing to managerial changes, it does not alter Ronaldo's excellent history with the Red Devils, which continues to resonate with fans across the world.
Fans react after Cristiano Ronaldo’s incredible stats for Manchester United resurfaced on the internet
Inspired by a recent ESPN piece, Manchester United fans have been buzzing about Cristiano Ronaldo's stats for the 2021-22 season. Following a €17 million deal from Juventus, the legendary striker triumphantly returned to Old Trafford. The news of Cristiano Ronaldo returning to Manchester broke the internet, as it is to date considered the ‘best football coming’ in history. It makes it more special that Cristiano Ronaldo is still the last player to win the Ballon d'Or in the Premier League, he won it in 2008, and no player since then has won it so far.
Considered as one of Manchester United's best players, Ronaldo is strongly connected with the number 7 jersey. Over his two Red Devil tenure, he has made 346 appearances, scored 145 goals, and given 64 assists.
The 5 time Ballon d'Or winner finished the season as the top goalscorer for the club overall and won two Player of the Match honours. Along with being chosen to the Premier League Team of the Season, he received the team's Goal of the Season honour and was crowned Player of the Year for the club. He scored 24 goals in 39 games for Manchester United in 2021/22 season.
However, everything fell apart for Manchester United and Cristiano Ronaldo after Erik Ten Hag arrived and benched the United icon multiple times. CR7 then gave an interview to Piers Morgan and after that, his contract was terminated on mutual consent. Cristiano Ronaldo has shown no signs of stopping where Manchester United continues to struggle. Ronaldo moved to Saudi Arabia’s Al-Nassr in January 2023. Ronaldo has thus far scored 64 goals, given 15 assists, made 70 appearances, and logged 6,178 minutes overall.
