Manchester United has been in bad form these days. They do not look anything like their amazing form last season. With Ronaldo fit to play for United, will he be powerful enough to change Man Utd's form single handedly? Will he be as amazing as last season after his injury? He has certainly been in the news often despite his absence in the starting team. He has been enjoying himself, and even went to party in America. This is still ok, but the Real Madrid saga is definitely not ok. His attitude has been a concern as well. His comments were as if he is the king of the world, the god of football. What are your views?

man utd had a very bad start to the season. many other team are looking better than man utd. last year ronaldo was a great hit. he won many games on his own.
without him man utd isnt looking impressive. he is returning from injury, he will take some time to find his feet. the big factor is his commitment to the team, with all the saga abt his transfer to real, he might have turned few of his friends into foes. i feel he cant play as commitedly as he played like last year. this year he will not be as big as he was last year. but to early to predict the rest of the season, but for the movement it isnt lookin gud.

I dun really agree to what u pointed out. I think Ronaldo is currently still on hot form despite the ankle injury. Great players bounce back from injury fast. I'm sure he will found the net in a game or 2.
He may not be able to repeat the feat of 42 goals a season, but i'm sure that he will hit at least 20 this season.
I agree that man utd did not have a good start this season. But did u notice that man utd always started badly? It's hard to predict what's going to happen.

hi dude, i agree with u, ronaldo is still a hot property. he may find his feet in one or two matches. points lost in those match will be enough sometimes to decide the fate of championship. the big factor is. i seriously doubt his commitement towards man utd after making all those statements during transfer window. this will be the big factor. more over, chlesa,liverpool,arsenal are looking more composed and better side at the movement. i am not saying tat he will not perform well, but compared to last season, he will defenetly underperform. thus affecting chance of man utd. may be i am predicting it too early, anything can happen in football. let c how it goes on.........heared tat u r a livepool fan, i love the way torres and gerad play. congratulation on there champions league victory....

yup thx. DId u catch last night's champs league? Man u vs Villareal. The impact of ronaldo can be really felt when he was introduced to replace park. Suddenly the pace of the match changed with his introduction and man u started to attack more. Although man u still manage a draw in the end, it is still a positive performance from them. I believe that the next match man u may win, because ronaldo is going to play full match.
next, man u vs chelsea. great match this weekend. stay home and watch! :)

Well last year was the same... Liverpool Chelsea and Arsenal cruising for the championship while united had 2 or 3 consecutive defeats and in the end there were champions... I don't say that they'll be the champions again but you cant decide a teams fate in the first 4-5 matches in the EPL... We could say what each team can do around Xmas... Just hope that this time it won't be a two teams "race" but ManUtd Chelsea Arsenal Liverpool and maybe Everton and ManCity would give a fight till the end for the championship and let us see a great Football season :)
