Manchester United's FA Cup defeat to Middlesbrough was the latest in a long list of disappointments for the Old Trafford club this term, and the elimination from the competition allowed Jamie Carragher to continue a row with Roy Keane over Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ronaldo missed a penalty in normal time during Friday night's match, yet Carragher was able to hark back to an argument he had with the former Manchester United captain on Sky Sports earlier in the season.
"Roy Keane told me Man United had signed Ronaldo to win the FA Cup," Carragher tweeted after Anthony Elanga missed the decisive spot-kick.
This followed the aforementioned argument in which Keane suggested that Ronaldo had been brought back to the club to aid their pursuit of minor trophies.
"Ronaldo was never going to get United back to winning titles, he's not come back to win the league," Keane declared on Sky Sports.
"Winning the FA Cup and they got through to the next round of the Champions League, how much do you think that's worth to the club? The Glazers and share prices, that's what he's come back for."

Always Ronaldo....... Nobody is talking about Messi. Because Messi is just an ordinary player like others

CR7 in ManU to win minor trophies...'wow'. Small intentions from big club like ManU. No wonder they were beaten by a minor club. But seriously if a goat is in your team to win minor trophies, dude, then I think you are just wasting your money. You should let him go so that the young talented ones can shine. Even the FA CUP that you're targeting is dream not to come through. Well I'm really glad ManU isn't in this competition anymore to worry my beloved team.But seriously ManU fans still can't believe what happened
