Ronaldo, winger Jadon Sancho and centre back Raphael Varane all arrived during the summer transfer window with their combined transfer fees amounting to ksh15 billion (£100m).
Despite Manchester United having some of the highest-paid players, the team is still struggling to be among the top four this season.
Cristiano Ronaldo in 24 Premier League games has scored 12 goals and provided three assists only.
Jadon Sancho, in the same amount of matches, has only contributed three goals and three assists for Manchester United.
French Defender Raphael Varane has been sidelined with groin and hamstring injuries since his arrival.
He has only featured in 17 Premier League games for United, recording four clean sheets only.
David De Gea is among the key United players who has received praise for his outstanding saves. However, his side has kept only seven clean sheets in 29 Premier League games so far.
