MANCHESTER, England -- Maybe the Glazers will never get it right as Manchester United owners. When they signed Tom Brady for their NFL franchise, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, they were rewarded with a Super Bowl title at the first attempt, but for all of Cristiano Ronaldo's goals and star quality, the best they can hope for this season is Europa League qualification such is the depth of the malaise at Old Trafford.
Ronaldo took his Premier League goal tally to 18 with a second-half equaliser, two minutes after Marcos Alonso's volleyed opener, in Thursday's 1-1 home draw against Chelsea.
