If it weren't for Cristiano Ronaldo, would Ole Gunnar Solskjaer even have a job right now? That's a fair question to ask, as time and time again Ronaldo has come up huge for his manager.

Such was the case on Tuesday in the Champions League 2-2 draw with Atalanta. With United down 1-0, Ronaldo scored in stoppage time of the first have to tie things up. Then with Man U down 2-1 right before the final whistle, arguably the GOAT, Ronaldo stepped up again.

How does he keep doing this? Ronaldo has been massive for United this season. Solskjaer must be thanking his lucky stars right now.
