After another strong performance for the 37-year-old on Monday, the Red Devils defeated Brentford.With the impending arrival of Erik ten Hag in the summer transfer window, much has been made of Ronaldo’s future.
But the Portuguese superstar has once again demonstrated why he is still the club’s main man.

Amid a difficult season for the club, the players performed a lap of honour at full-time.
Unless Arsenal and Tottenham fall, United will spend next season in the Europa League, which will be a completely new experience for Ronaldo. If he stays, his brief remark to TV cameras as he walked off the pitch will give fans hope.
As he waved to the crowd with a big grin on his face, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner appeared to say, “I’m not finished.”

Despite the controversy surrounding his arrival, there is no denying that United would be in a much more difficult position without his goals.

Ronaldo’s second stint at United has been clouded by misfortunes beyond his control, such as the appointment of Ralf Rangnick.
The German coach took over on an interim basis from Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, but he admits his tenure was insufficient.
“I’m not completely happy with those six months. I would have expected to qualify for the Champions League; that was our goal,” he said. “We lost quite a lot of important players.
“From the team that won against West Ham [on 22 January], for the next game, three players were injured. Other teams brought in players in the window.
