Lmao these waste man's will still be waffling about the 🐐. Can't stand Simon that's why I dnt watch talks port. souness had some valid points. Anyone still talking about him needs to get a life and get out more. Wev had major problems before he came and will still remain after he gone and while the glazers are owners. Maguire leaving would be the transfer of the summer been wanting him out since he came. Mctominay and Fred dnt get me started.

Why do players just become useless once they join Manchester United? Look at Wellbeck whom was written off by Manchester United long time ago being the one who game them hard time. That tells you the problem isn't those players but the club has a problem. If those Manchester United players were playing for another team they would be playing much better than they're today.

I think Graham makes a really valid point. Rather than pull apart and concentrate on the negatives, which seems to be going on across the board. Look at the positives that one of the greatest players of all time, who’s in fantastic shape at 37, and think of how you can utilise it for the benefit of all concerned. If he can’t be the ideal role model for all those youngsters, no one can.

@Gfresh844

To call him an ideal role model isn't the case. He's incredibly professional in the sense of how he trains and his desire to be a winner; but an exemplary professional also puts the team before his own needs, which he obviously doesn't. The fact he wants to leave at short notice shows he couldn't care less about the club. It was the same story with Juventus last season. Leaving the stadium early also isn't what a role model would do. Regardless of him being one of the greatest ever, a player who doesn't want to be there isn't someone you need in the dressing room.

I’ve also seen some of the great leadership and team qualities he portrays, that don’t even get a mention. I’ve also heard some ex professionals talk and defend him with regards to his asking to leave. Souness defended Ronaldo when he explained that the previous manager wanted to get rid of him, so what do you expect him to do. If he’s not getting the backing, he remained professional last year, but with everything that’s going, he’d want some support and guarantees. Especially at 37, he’s not got the time to be messed about at his age.

The equation is simple with very good team where 10 players there to run for him and create for him 10-12 chances on the plate every game, he can score upto 30 goals where another player playing on his position may score 18 goals. But the big catch is here For Ronaldo to get 30 goals he has to remain in front of goal area and pretty much allowed to sulk the whole game. He cannot, dribble. link up is poor, do not provide the key passes, not track back so team becomes vulnerable and concedes about (15 goals) more. Another player in place of him rotates more and does not have to channel through him another two three player can come in the center and attempts more that means additional 10 , 10 goals + 20 team goals will increase. The same team can operate fluidly. so the net with ronaldo = 30 -15 = +15 goals where as pressing and rotating strikers (18+10+10) = + 38 goals . that is a huge difference of +23 goal difference playing the team with decent strikers vs Pendu and also the midfield , CBs, goalee all require to change for Pendu to score those 30 goals which takes time and team goals does not improve. that was exactly what happed in Juve and Man U ( last season). So for the PR reason and for Pendu fangirls with all the setups for Pendu 30 goals of Pendu vs 18 goals = 12 goals difference was shown and make arguements for him but does not analyse the whole game what he brings and at what costs. that is why no big clubs with footballing projects want Pendu in their team.
Im a messi fan but being ronaldo wins you privilages. One of those is walking out on a friendly at half time. If people remember ronaldinho he would walk in to a match from the club. Lets not even mention gazza/maradonna ect.
I seem to remember in Ronaldo's last years in Madrid and then in Juventus he wasn't demanding to play every game, quite the opposite: he was criticized for only wanting to play big games and not Murcia and Verona and such.
No matter which way you look at it, Ronaldo is one of the greatest players of all time, 800 goals and ends up playing for a team on the same level as Norwich. No disrespect to Norwich.
Utd only looked a threat AFTER Ronaldo was brought on ......shows just how badly we need more players .....😖😫
Quite like having Souness, Great show!
I'm pretty sure if United had told him he'll play (start) between 24-27 Prem games, every UCL game and with a few cup games when needed I think he would've agreed. If not, you don't buy him, United had to do what's best for them and Ronaldo what's best for him, simple business.

Great debate - good to see Simon being challenged intelligently for a change. These are going to be must listens.
I agree with Simon. Ten Hag wants to build a team for the future, which is why it makes no sense to keep a 37 year old who wants to leave. I've no doubt CR will continue to get his fair share of goals if he stays. However, that comes at the cost of having someone with a huge ego, who could well be a negative influence when he doesn't get his way. The evidence of that was there to be seen just a week ago when he left the ground early after being subbed off. This isn't someone who puts the team before himself. United need to look at the bigger picture and invest in players they feel can take the club forward for years to come.
The media seem to forget Ronaldo lost a child earlier this year, can’t blame him for not wanting to be away from his family if that’s the reason.

It's time to go for CR7 quickly before the transfer deadline passes. What a player and career he's had but lets not get it twisted here; he's not going to play for the badge, despite his mentor, Sir Alex, lingering around for his Portuguese son. Perhaps Ronny will put in a few shifts for the next couple of games for the club before the transfer deadline ends, but if he isn't sold by then you can bet we'll see him down tools again and probably disappear altogether. This will sum up another failed season for the red devils because it will be too late to find a prolific goal scoring replacement - not that a world class striker would even join this current Utd squad. The Man Utd fall from glory continues and nobody has come up with an answer yet. It's sad and you've got to feel sorry for Ten Hag in all of this.

But the club even said they spoke with Ronaldo and he was cool with the fact of us getting another striker, the problem is the Glazers not giving us the January budget screwed us
Souness explaining what he would have done with Ronaldo and we are all interested ,the he's interrupted by silly Simon and then souness tried getting back on page but he has to contend with simon🤦♂️

'Well Said, Souness speaks alot of sense'. - We put out a comment a week ago stating CR7 has raised the standards at the Club, so its up to Us to raise Our standards & go beyond! We only got 1 agreement 'That Says It All'!
What happened should have been ole sacked straight after the Europa league final. They bottle a league challenge after xmas and were lucky to finish 2nd in the end. They were rubbish. Conte was the man to bring in to sort the team out and clear out the rubbish which there was plenty of

you're assuming that the Glazers are bothered about winning anything. United are a commercial asset that generate 20-25 million income a year for them. As long as the sponsors keep paying,, no problem.
Yes lads, Souness and Jordan are a great combo. Some people slam Souness but he’s undoubtedly one of the best pundits around and he hates pogba, that’s enough for any United fan.
How good is Souness...! Great signing for Talksport
Grahams first Monday has gone down amazingly. A nice fresh insight into football politics. I'm a man utd fan but Graham is one of my fav players/manager/pundit etc. The man is a legend
Graham Souness is a class act , he was a excellent player and excellent manager who knew what he talks about, where as the other gentleman is always argumentative and deliberately bending everyone words and keep going endless arguments
Rashford has had his head down for years, Fernandes was amazing when he joined and then he turned into an inaccurate whinger. Liverpool were shite in the 90s but at least they were plucky. There's something causing that mentality in the dressing room. There's a huge amount of potential to be unlocked in that side if their heads can be straight. I'd go straight for the sports psychology team and fucking fire them all.

I agree but a psychologist can't treat a bad perdonality. If those players are on big wages, satisfied with their lives and careers, you can't do anything. How do you want someone with a full belly to feel hungry? You can't. United need to work on their wage structure and sell those "satisfied" players.

This is a wicked show. Great discussion and although different personalities and experiences, max listening and respect. Don't stop doing awesomeness.
Graeme is a great man. Very wise 👌 👏 I'm a fan. Manchester United need somebody like you. If only most pundits had a great managerial mind like yours. You'd make a good football director at United or any club. 💯🤝🏾🔥🔥🔥
Souness as ever the only football pundit with expert knowledge. Maybe Man Utd should sign him to weed out the chaff from United’s dressing room 👍

Clearly not good enough for the other big teams as none of them want him
Excellent discussion from Simon and Graham, from differing perspectives the same basic common sense conclusions
That taking his 18 goals out of the equation and finishing 14th, sounds good but it's a false narrative because in effect you are removing a player where there would be another player, scoring more or less goals but at least some goals.
Graeme talking facts
Argument over where would Manchester United be without the goals of Cristiano Ronaldo is a terrible argument. If any team in the Premier League played without a goalkeeper they would give up way more goals as well. Comparing his goal return to that of an average striker would make sense but pretending like they wouldn't have come from somebody else is crazy.

Who scored? The same bruno that missed chances yesterday? The same Rashford that missed chances yesterday? The same Martial who morphs into a sloth when the going gets tough? You are deluded. The true state of the team was exposed yesterday. This team will struggle to finish Top 6. Ronaldo is simply a great player playing with average and mediocre players. That is the reality and the fact. Aye Mr facts!
Souness is great doing champions league matches on Irish Tv. In fact he is loved here
I'm a Utd fan and love Ronaldo. I don't want him to leave at all because Utd absolutely need him. Should he leave? Yes of course he should, the club is in a heap and will stay that way or get worse while those leeches are there.
I finally agree with Simon on this one we haven't put the best in class for 9 years and you reap what you sow in this old game of footy.
Souey is a top signing… good balance of player/manger and owner viewpoints along with Simon 👍🏻
Ronaldo doesn’t sit with Messi, Pele and Maradona, he’s in the tier below, no disrespect to him, he’s a wonderful striker, but they are a different class
Never seen Simon so silent he met his match.

Do we need him yes because the board will not buy another striker. Do I want him to stay yes and no for united yes we need him, but he shouldn't go out like this.
Was good listening to Graeme souness,he fitted in on this show like a glove
The previous 3 managers failed to win without Ronnie. Ten Hag drops him and loses at home to Brighton. Ronaldo has never been the problem! Controversial opinion: Fergie was the one who created the toxic environment an Man Utd and still gas influence...
It isn't too often I have seen Simon Jordan blew out of the water! Souness talked sense.
“When he disappears into the ether...” 😂 Simon didn’t like that behaviour a bit
Best team so far great addition Holy trinity of talksport
You don't get rid of a proven goal scorer that easily. Replacing his goals will be a massive issue for Man United, whether he wants to be there or not, if Ronaldo plays he will score. He needs games. The rest of the team need sorting out

Funny how one year he goes from being top drawer to suddenly being too old? They call that the ‘Maguire effect’
Take Milner guys cracks on and there’s no comment on his commitment his age how fit he is is age and how many different positions he can play wow what a man 👏👏👏
I literally cannot believe I’m saying this but Graham Souness is literally the voice of reason from a counter argument perspective. It’s so refreshing to actually hear someone consider shades of grey in a situation like this. These are professional athletes, megastars, billion dollar brands, but at the end of the day they’re all just people.
Did he played every game under zidane.....Simon this time I think you are wrong this time...
The best segment on Talksport. White, Souness and Jordan are so engaging.
I'm a Liverpool fan but I'll say my thinking is, make him a assistant manger/player, maybe that will help a bit.
I said it last month and people laughed at me, its started and u will realise.. A manager and players from dutch league aint gona work. Apart from top2 teams rest of dutch league is crap. Signing players from dutch league aint good enough. Need a manager with big balls who is gona take big decisions. Someone who will drop McFred and Mguire and if board wont sell em then let them rot in reserves. Ten Hag just wants to sign his mates to play but they aint gona b good enough
The love of talking of each other is getting stronger, just what you need when your listening in your car
Have to hold onto Ronaldo, even if they bring in another striker because there isn't enough backing in that position. As for him and others leaving at half time...if they were allowed to leave, which I imagine they were, then so be it. As for the rest of pre season...let's not forget the tragedy he went through just before the end of the season. Souness is absolutely right. Make him feel loved. Don't have any other option right now.
its great seeing souness trying to look restrained / moderate even handed , lol he wouldve chewed up ronaldo and shown him how it is , which if gets ronaldo on board you have a great starting point
why would frenkie want to leave Xavi's barcelona overhaul? i think that will be the largest variable in seeing him stay there. does he want to play through balls to raphina and dembele or a ronaldo that cant move anymore
Ronaldo wants to move to a bigger club. Can’t blame him as he only has a couple of seasons left at the top.
