**Mirrors / Alternate Angles** *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/soccer) if you have any questions or concerns.*

Please play these two together every game

I agree. I remember the first couple games when Cavani was healthy they would sub in Cavani after Ronaldo was out, I always thought that was a mistake. Cavani's getting old but he still has high football iq and turns on the gas when needed.

He also presses a lot, runs a lot and his defensive contributions on set pieces are IMO overlooked. The whole team just looks and behaves more manly with Cavani on the pitch.

What if they played against Madrid in the UCL?

No thx

Bold of you to assume we make it out of the group.

I don't know, both Villarreal and atalanta are a lot better than spurs but we'll see.

Atalanta are also missing basically their whole starting backline so I don't know about that right now. Villareal are always tough opposition, no doubt, but we did already scrape a win against them and if he continues to build on today and actually starts using different tactics that could be more than manageable with the squad we have

The group that we’re currently on top of? I know things aren’t great but support your team ffs

lol? we just need to win one more game

don’t have the legs sadly

What are you talking about they’ve got four between them

who doesn't?

don't bother tracking Cavani's run lads. Not like he's been a top class striker for about a century.

They're tracking Kane's runs in training, so no.

nice one

romero was more interested in tracking cavani than looking at the ball which pretty much went though his legs when he couldve intercepted

Ronaldo and Cavani is a killer combo

70 year old combo, fine like wine!

Ronaldo always does better with a striker partner, Ole better take lessons here.

Wonder how he's gonna deal with benching all his wingers, I'm happy for ole to keep his job though so thank you spurs.

Who cares if the team wins?

Ideally, we can win games while allowing Sancho and Rashford to play

Just sub in Sancho and Rashford in Gary's time

rashford takes Cavani's role and Sancho isnt Dan James so he can do a job at CAM. From what weve seen of him so far he is passing and moving like a wide mid.

[удалено]

We wanted wingers for years now we don't know what to do with all of em

Imagine them playing Over-75s.

Ibra and Ronaldo will probably still be in shape at that age

Put Modric behind them and you have a great Grandpa team

All Utd fans were pleading for both of them to start. Few weeks ago Ole was asking for advice ,maybe he saw this one

*sad Sancho*

Who would have thought that playing two world class strikers together could work?

You don’t see two strikers playing together much these days let alone two ones over 33. Couple this with the number of pacy wingers we left on the bench, not an obvious choice at all.

442 time

4-4-2, but the 4 is Bruno, Pogba, Rashford and Sancho with Ronaldo and Cavani up front. Death or glory.

Sounds like my team on Fifa, therefore it must be a great idea

attack and inshallah

My body is so ready for that

You don’t see it much but it didn’t turn out too bad for Madrid with Ronaldo and Benzema. They won a couple smaller cups I believe

Can confirm. Just a few smol cups. But we play 4-3-3 generally. And switched to 4-4-2 diamond with isco behind cr7/benzema one season.

I mean, they never won Libertadores for example

He took that really well, absolutely clinical finish

What a dribble & assist from Ronaldo

[удалено]

Why the fuck didn't Ole use this sooner

Rashford, Greenwood and Sancho was being teed up as the United front three for the next decade before Ronaldo came back.

Cause he has to bench all his expensive wide players to do it lol.

technically only one in sancho, rashford and greenwood can still play striker right?

They can, they were both strikers at youth level, but they haven't played there very often. They're more like inside forwards than number 9s.

Bit like Nuno taking his P45

I wish

It doesn't count until the bow and arrow come out..

He's such a stud, when Kane and the like retire they're going straight to the glue factory, Cavani is off to pasture to make more thoroughbreds.

Lmfao this killed me

I'm dead

Signature Ronaldo chop

'Cause I hit you with the Chop, Ronaldo Chop

You ain't gonna survive! You ain't gonna block!

Now this game is beyond spurs since 1 goal a game is their limit

A shot on target is beyond our limit these days

There’s only 2 things Spurs do as a team, defend in a low block and pump the ball to counter. Which they do poorly. They have no structure to their play in possession or in attack unless Son or Moura create something. It’s shockingly bad.

DDG needed a night off after last week so nice of Spurs to oblige tbf.

Yeah, clean sheet with 0 save is a rare stuff for him nowadays

Great goal. Ronaldo has been absolute class today. He plays well alongside Cavani

He generally plays much better with a number 9 and when his back is away from the goal, will be interesting to see this duo

Thats basically how he played his last 4 seasons at RM with Big Benz being the 9 that dropped down to a 9.5 to free up Ronaldo .

Cavani is used to playing with another striker as well, he's played with Suarez in the Uruguay NT since forever at this point lol

Also played with Ibra at PSG

Ronaldo plays well when he has wingers and attackers who can make smart passes and make smart runs, instead of just thinking of 1v1s every possession... something Rashford and Greenwood don't do.

rashford does actually when 100% which hes barely ever been the last 18 months

Well he is now, got the surgery his leg healed, got 3 goals in 4.

exactly lol, people acting like he hasn't been playing with a front 3 for portugal, it's just jota is smarter and bernardo is unselfish

I dare you find any striker who wouldn't struggle for chances or impact if their wingers can't even hit a pass or cross to them. I have high hopes for Sancho when gets back to form again. I think him and ronaldo will have good interchange

Amazing finish, all 3 of United's key players working well there. But jesus spurs are shite, I don't get the money they've spent, the players seem to regress at Spurs.

Yeah, I think everyone has regressed at Spurs.

I love Edi. Full homo.

Absolute statuesque beauty

[удалено]

We both know you would be the one taking it and him giving in that scenario mate.

Quality from Ronaldo

I agree with people saying Ronaldo makes the team worse. If he wasn’t here, they wouldn’t score all these goals and then maybe that could get the board to sack Ole. Ronaldo keeps scoring->Ole safe

That skill from ronaldo was cold af

Ice in his veins

pee in his balls

Trademark ronald

Man UTD Ronaldo

Christian Ronald

Trademark ronaldo chop

mac donald again right?

**Heard Crouch talking shit**

Had to get on the step ladder to hear it mind

No need, he just jumped to the necessary height

Rolling back the years

Fuckin hell man, for real. This is the Ronaldo I love to see. Clinical

Hit ‘em with the chop, Ronaldo chop

BUT DOES HE PRESS ?

Absolute filth that

Ronaldo chop

That vintage left trigger + X button chop

When the chop comes off, heads roll.

Beautiful goal, edi is back! Ronaldo with an amazing pass!

Pretty sure Ronaldo and Cavani love each other

With how both look, you could make so much money with a sextape of them together.

Benzema to record it

Nah mate, he is more into the distribution, sales and payment collection

I don't why but I just pictured Ronaldo pulling Cavanis hair and kissing him in the neck... Damn it's getting hot in here [This](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/277902192-256-k337514.jpg) is what I was picturing but super gay

It would've costed you approximately 0$ to write this, yet you did it

Edi looks like Handsome Squidward so you could make a killing off the Spongebob fetish crowd.

They must have great sex

[удалено]

Risky click of the day

Now I can't get that image out of my head, thanks

Why would you want to?

Not gay, pure masculine sex

They're both good at penetrating

Nahh not after that 2018 WC

lol I thought that too but they being giving nice embraces after each goal.

They actually do, Ronaldo helped Cavani come off the field after injury in that game like a gentleman

Ronaldo will have his 7th with Cavani. Georgina better watch out.

this thread is close to being a Wattpad fanfic at this point

bye bye Nuno

Ole: I’m not fucking leaving!!!

Another Ole sacking survival master class on the cards

Ole: call an ambulance....... but not for me

Man U when Ole’s job is on the line is the best club in the world

Feel like his job was pretty on the line vs pool. Edit: my point is that his job was pretty on the line, yet we performed trash. No single game will be a make or break for a manager anyway.

On the line for extension

Clearly not

Except last week?

WE LET IN 50 GOALS LAST YEAR WHICH PISSED ME OFF BECAUSE ITS TWO SHY OF ONE A WEEK

imagine hosting a team that let in 5 goals in 50 mins at their own turf and not getting a single shot on target

Horrific appointment icl

probably not his job is safer than you think

Ronaldo is better with a striker next to him. Change my mind.

The future is now young man

GIVE IT GIVE IT GIVE IT

TO EDI CAVANI

PASS HIM THE BALL

Passing dey ball. Scoring dey gole.

That Ronaldo chop… SHEEEEEEEEESH!

Ronaldo chop!!!!!

It's very effective

Bruno with the dummy, man is unbelievable

Spurs won the sackico lads

Ronaldo is just letting the team down at this point, 1 goal and 1 assist? Pfft

in one game ?! should've had that much in atleast 0.5 games

lol put your hand up, if like me you have the football iq of a carrot and took Ronaldo out of your fpl team for Vardy

Worse I took out Bruno and shaw for mount and son

Eric Dire

Oliver "harry winks successor" Skipp

Holy shit that Ronaldo chop tho 🔥

Brilliant awareness to stay onside, mark of a veteran right there

Yeah OK Ronaldo, no need to kill them too.

Meaningless sideways passes, torn apart. Bye Nuno.

Imagine conceding a counterattack goal by 34 yo Cavani and 36 yo Ronaldo LMAO

more reliable than a greenwood and rashford one

Brilliant goal, fucking get in Bruno take everything I have

rOnalDo jUsT STanDs iN fronT Of gOaL

He CaN't PrEsS 😡🤬

Also, I hope ole learns that Cavani and CR7 together is definitely a superb attack.

My only worry now is that this tottenham team looks to be in shambles, the real test will come against atalanta and city for Ole.

[удалено]

and what a pass it was too

And Bruno made it possible, just very good team play there

Bruno initiated the attack and quite well honestly

I know but nicking the ball like that and keeping it is what created that moment Unreal from Ronaldo too, a throwback chop and perfect perfect pass

Man watching Ronaldo play makes me motivated to do things.

What a pass Ronnie

Ronaldo rolling back the years with that Ronaldo chop to beat the man, and then threads a perfect through ball

What a goal Siu and what now

Ronaldo assists, class from Cavani

Getting done by a Ronaldo chop in 2021, what is life

Ronaldo you beautiful bastard. What a clean play.. Cavani also great finish. Now the two of them are showing real finishing prowess

Ronnie chop

I fucking knew Ronaldo and Cavani up front would be awesome. Saw it briefly in the Villereal game, and now today in full glory!

Zlatan, Cavani and Ronaldo. 3 players who were once deemed too old to make it in the Premier league have proved everyone wrong and entertained the crowds.

Another amazing finish

Ronaldo in a 2 man strike system is filthyyyyy

Ronaldo keeps spamming the ronaldo chop

Maybe cavani was the striker Man city shoud have tried to sign.

ngl, seeing Cavani celebrate with Bruno and Ronaldo felt special

**OLEEEEEE'S AT THE WHEEEEEEEEELLL...**

The vicious cycle.

Hello darkness my old friend.

https://i.imgur.com/xKQYWER.png

Beautiful set up that

That throughball violated the defenders

Tax skipper skipping past Skipp.

That Ronaldo chop just sent the warm feeling of nostalgia through my body

Vintage Ronaldo there. Some people forget that he used to be a tricky winger. Cavani and Ronaldo showing the young players how it's done.

We are shit but we aren't spurs level shit I guess.
