you should obviously know that originally, user names are assigned by some automated numbskull, and I therefore don't bother about such pettiness. About the GOAT and his dry spell; well, I guess the two one-on-one with Meslier that he couldn't convert in the Leeds match played out in midfield!
[Crylaugh][Crylaugh][Crylaugh][Crylaugh] you kidding right, the tap-in you clearly saw the ball was behind him, the other one on one was offside. stop watching the back of your TV and maybe you just too dumb to know CR7 had more midfield balls than final third balls

your username and that a dumb opinion. now he is involve in the buildup play than finding the net. the team's play keeps playing out of position and draining his energy. He played more midfield balls than more touches in the final third

CR7 could be the top scorer on ManU payroll, but he hasn't done the team alot of good. In fact, he is going through a very dry spell by his standards that he reasonably needed to be kept out to give chance to others. One can't blame CR7s team mates nor raise beef with the coach about not playing to CR7s strengths. The GOAT has just hit some quicksand, and his confidence is taking a hit. I only hope he doesn't start shifting blame and raising beef against others for his misfortune, but contribute to team harmony, coz many younger team mates and even coaches respect him. He will eventually find inspiration somewhere.. even on the bench maybe!!
How come he hasn't done the team alot of good??
