Paul Merson debates with the rest of the Soccer Special panel about whether or not Cristiano Ronaldo's return to Manchester United has been a success.

Paul Merson labels Cristiano Ronaldo 'a bad signing' for Manchester United because he is failing to lead them back into the Champions League... and says they don't have a '1% chance' of beating Liverpool at Anfield on Tuesday

Arsenal legend Paul Merson has had his say on whether he believes Cristiano Ronaldo's return to Manchester United has been a success.

 

Ronaldo, 37, made the move back to Old Trafford last summer after the club payed Juventus €15million (£12.9m) for his services.

The talismanic Portugal captain netted a hat-trick as his side defeated Norwich 3-2 at home over the weekend as they maintained their hopes of a place in next season's Champions League.

Paul Merson has slammed Manchester United for the signing of Cristiano Ronaldo, with the Red Devils’ season petering out somewhat at Old Trafford.

 

Following the return of Ronaldo, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer parted ways with the club, with Ralf Rangnick taking over on an interim basis.

 

While the returning Ronaldo has not been totally at fault for the most part, Merson has suggested otherwise on Sky Sports News on Monday afternoon
