The Mailbox looks at the Partey/Casemiro talk and wonders why Man Uyd measure themselves in names. Plus, plenty on Ronaldo and Unai Emery.
Why do Manchester United pundits pretend success is measured in names?
The question Rio answered – one which I would like to reiterate he wasn’t asked – was “who is the definitively more accomplished and, also, historically better player?” Thanks, Rio, for letting us know that Casemiro would win that debate. Stewie spoke of “shifting goalposts” and this is exactly what Rio does here.
How is commentary like this supposed to actually help you guys? Because I have to say you sound a lot like us about 10 years ago.as well as the press have discussed Ronaldo’s situation at United with an overarching conclusion of ‘just let him go’ and I just wanted to point out that it’s really not that simple.
United did authorise Mendes to find Ronaldo a new club in the summer however they wanted a nominal fee for the transfer so they would have funds for a replacement striker. There were no takers and it was even mooted by some that even on a free transfer these clubs could not afford the player due to his wage demands. In the intervening months the situation has worsened.
