Manchester United’s biggest problem isn’t just the board or technical directors. It’s also fans like Mark Goldbridge and his United Stand cult. Four years ago, Ronaldo gave this club an alley-oop to finally confront the rot within. Instead of listening, you sided with the very people holding the club back, and its nepotistic puppet bald-headed manager Ten hag, who was running side gig with the club. I just watched Goldbridge sit with Carragher and Rooney as they blamed Ronaldo for airing his grievances. The same Goldbridge who tore Ronaldo apart now wants a statue for Lisandro Martínez? Make it make sense. Back then: “Ronaldo is crazy. He only cares about himself.” Now: “Lisandro Martínez has been shit this season, but he’s a legend. Build him a statue!” The hypocrisy is unreal. You dismissed the greatest footballer of all time when he called out the problems at your club, only to turn around and worship players who haven’t come close to his impact. Manchester United doesn’t just have a leadership problem. It has a fanbase that keeps defending the very culture that’s holding the club back. And that might be the biggest problem of all.

Shut up, Alex. You are a crook.
