Stats show Manchester United score less goals with Cristiano Ronaldo in the team


 Since Cristiano Ronaldo dropped the weekend bombshell of his desire to leave Manchester United, the football world has been debating just how the club will cope without him.

Miguel has unearthed a surprising stat that Ronaldo’s overall impact isn’t always as positive as it may seem.

This is no small drop-off in figures for both United and his previous club, Juventus.

It is also worth noting that United finished second the season before Ronaldo’s arrival, playing some of the most exciting football of the post-Ferguson era in the process.

A fluid front three of Rashford ,Greenwood and Martial were terrorising defences as then manager Ole interchanged the trio, to devastating effect.

There is no doubting Ronaldo’s finishing ability, the Portuguese superstar comfortably finished United’ top scorer last time out.
