Cristiano Ronaldo finished as the Top Premier League Goalscorer back in 2008 when bagging 31 goals for the Red Devils and we’re 10/1 about the 36-year old scoring 30 or more this time around, while he’s just 9/2 to add another Golden Boot to his collection despite not yet starting a game for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side. 21 league goals is the lowest tally he’s recorded since leaving these shores in 2009 and we rate him as a 6/5 chance to notch 20 or fewer during this campaign.
Ronaldo is also no stranger to the PFA Player of the Year award having landed it in successive seasons in 07 & 08 and we’ve instantly installed him as our 5/1 favourite to be the first player ever to lift the trophy on 3 occasions.
Despite the bucket load of goals in his 1st stint, Ronaldo only managed one hat-trick for Manchester United – can you guess who that was against? It was Newcastle United in a 6-0 victory, you can see where I’m going with this, can’t you? 5/1 for a fairy-tale treble looks on the short side, while he’s just 15/8 to score first and 7/4 to outscore Steve Bruce’s side on his own.
One debate that’s doing the rounds, especially with compatriot Bruno Fernandes in the team, is who will be on penalty duty. Bruno’s recent record from the spot is better than Ronaldo’s, but I’m with the general consensus that Ronaldo will pull rank and take over. United are yet to have been awarded a spot kick this season & Newcastle have conceded one in each of their first 3 games – they’re 12/5 to score one and 10/1 to miss from 12 yards against the Toon.
