5 reasons why Cristiano Ronaldo should have moved to Manchester United

Domestic leagues are well underway and we are enthralled to be cheering for our favourite clubs. From the ever dynamic English Premier League to the graceful la Liga, club football is in itself a masterclass.

Now that the transfer window is in the rear view mirror we can rightly say that this was probably one of the craziest transfer windows of recent future.

This transfer window was an eventful one with numerous shock transfers taking place. From Arturo Vidal’s switch to Barcelona from Bavaria to Thibaut Courtois's switch to Real Madrid, the transfer window was full of surprises.

But the biggest shocker of this transfer window was Cristiano Ronaldo’s move from Real Madrid to Juventus. The Portuguese spent nine glorious years at Santiago Bernabeu before making an unforeseen switch to Juventus.

Ronaldo’s debut season at old lady hasn’t been a pleasant one till now as the former Real Madrid winger is yet to find the back of the net for Juventus.

Here's a look at five reasons why the Portuguese Superstar should have opted for a move to Manchester United instead.

#1 A chance to become the all-time top scorer for two eminent clubs

Ronaldo might go down as one of the greatest goal scorers in the history of the game

Manchester United and Real Madrid are two of the greatest clubs in the world. Players crave to play for these gigantic rulers of football so it is fair to say that being the all-time top scorer of two clubs of that stature is quite unbelievable.

Ronaldo might go down as one of the greatest goal scorers in the history of this beautiful game. The Portuguese forward seem to find the back of the net almost every time and we can’t help but put on his stats to support our argument.

Ronaldo spent nine splendid years at Real Madrid, a period in which he won every trophy possible and became their all-time top scorer.

Hat-tricks became synonymous with his name courtesy of his goal scoring exploits.

Manchester United might not have got the same Ronaldo they had earlier as the Portuguese Superstar is no longer the player he was at United with his skills and exuberant playing style but an out and out goal scorer who would have provided a bit of his genius to turn the game in United’s favour any moment.

#2 Well accustomed to the Premier League

Ronaldo is well used to the intensity of the league and would have relished the opportunity of facing sides like Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal and many more on a weekly basis

Premier League is the most dominant league in the world, period. The drama, the intensity, the flare teams play with; the league is rightly termed as the most entertaining football league of the world.

Ronaldo spent six years in the Premier League, a period in which he entered the list of foreign greats who graced the field of a premier league fixture.

Ronaldo is well used to the intensity of the league and would have relished the opportunity of facing sides like Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal and many more on a weekly basis.

Serie A is more of a defensive league with more emphasis given on defending whereas in the Premier League we witness a great number of goals being scored from time to time.

Ronaldo is known to be a man who loves challenges and when it comes to challenges, there is no better place to be than the Premier League.

#3 More suited to Manchester United’s playing style

United could have used Ronaldo's expertise in scoring goals

Manchester United have not set the Premier League on fire as the Red Devils are yet to hit the ground running.

Jose Mourinho’s side has had a lackluster start and one major reason for that is their lack of goals. United have missed too many chances and it is fair to say that what they need the most is a prolific goal scorer.

And when it comes to goal scorer, there aren’t many men better than their former star, Ronaldo. The Portuguese might be struggling in Serie A at the moment but the world is aware of his goalscoring exploits.

While Juventus play a bit defensively which can be showcased from the number of goals scored by them in the previous seasons, Manchester United would have presented the former Real Madrid man a better goal scoring destination.

#2 Return of a Hero

United fans would have welcomed Ronaldo back with open arms

It is no secret that Ronaldo is adored by the United folklore. The Portuguese spent six years at Manchester United winning a plethora of titles for the club and as an individual as well.

Since his departure in 2009, United fans have looked upon each transfer window with a light of optimism that they’ll get their one of their favourite No.7's back.

Manchester United fans would have been extremely delighted upon Ronaldo's return, a thing they've craved ever since their former winger moved to Spain.

While his welcome in Italy was great, the magnitude of his homecoming celebration would have been like a festival in Manchester.

But now that Cristiano has moved to Juventus, the case of his return to Manchester United seem to have closed.

#1 A Perfect End to his Glittering Career

Old Trafford would have been the ideal place to bring down the curtains on his glittering career

Five Balon d’Ors, five Champions League titles, one European Championship title and the list goes on and on for Ronaldo.

His mammoth records speak for themselves and there is no denying of his place in the books of football history.

It would have been a perfect end to his glittering career had the Portuguese returned to Old Trafford and finished his glorious career at the theatre of dreams.
