Cristiano Ronaldo's return to Manchester United was celebrated by the fanbase on a global scale. After weeks of thinking he was going to sign for their rivals Manchester City, their famous number seven returned to Old Trafford and most fans couldn't have been happier.
What followed however was completely unexpected, some fans thought that United would be able to challenge for the title after a window that saw them bring in Ronaldo, Jadon Sancho and Raphael Varane. But even those who didn't think that the team was ready to go toe to toe with City and Liverpool didn't expect the club to miss out on Champions League football and crash out of every cup competition.
Despite the team severely underperforming, Ronaldo personally had a very good season. His goals were crucial for United's progression into the knockout stages of the Champions League and his 18 goals in the Premier League were only beaten by Mohammed Salah and Heung Min Son.
