Man Utd: Cristiano Ronaldo is causing a lot of problems for Solskjaer -Carragher

Cristiano Ronaldo’s transfer to Manchester United, according to former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher, will cause as many problems as it solves for manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer this season.

Carragher made the claim ahead of Man United’s Premier League match against West Ham United on Sunday.

Remember that Ronaldo returned to Manchester United from Juventus at the end of the summer transfer window, 12 years after leaving the club.

The 36-year-old Portugal captain has made an immediate impact for Man United, scoring two goals in a 2-0 win over Newcastle and another in a shock 2-1 Champions League loss to Young Boys.

“For all the understandable joy at Old Trafford over Cristiano Ronaldo’s return, his signing creates as many problems for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as it solves,” Carragher told the Telegraph.

“Ronaldo could turn out to be a better Premier League signing than he was for Manchester United.

“The bigger question for United is whether Ronaldo’s arrival brings them any closer to being a team capable of winning the Premier League and the Champions League once more,” he added.

“I would say no based on the first few games, despite the fact that they have won three of their first five matches. Ronaldo’s ability to win matches will inevitably strengthen United. What his arrival will not be able to do is transform United into a title-winning team or impose the distinct style of play that they currently lack.”
