Even after his vital winner against Everton last week, where he grabbed his 700th club goal, speculation was still rife about the future of Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo.
It has certainly not been the start to the campaign that the player would have wanted, but he has shown signs in recent weeks of still being able to have a positive impact on this team.
The Portuguese veteran expressed his desire to leave Old Trafford in the summer, with the Real Madrid legend desperate to play Champions League football.
Evidently, a move failed to materialise and the 37-year-old remained at United. It became quite clear, quite quickly, that the striker was not going to be given a prominent role by manager Erik ten Hag.
