I wonder why Manchester United fans rants on what is not necessary, I don't know how Ronaldo standing up from bench to go inside the tunnel when the match would end in few minutes turn to something they would talk on, at least it's not that they see Ronaldo on bench as part of their entertainment. Manchester United has won and they were already winning with two goals, so it's very obvious that Christiano Ronaldo isn't needed in that match anymore, if the coach really want him to play, he would have introduce Ronaldo before the time Ronaldo left and go inside the tunnel. According to news, Ronaldo has left the field even before the match end, so it means fans didn't even see him after the match.
Eric Ten Hag promised to punish Christiano Ronaldo and I think he is punishing him now because I heard Christiano Ronaldo is not allowed to enter the training ground now but that should not affect Christiano Ronaldo because that can't stop the money that he is collecting every blessed week, it is Manchester United that will loose and if I were Ronaldo, I would just go to my country and start another holiday until they would call him back. Eric Ten Hag has really messed Christiano Ronaldo up, he keeps doing that every matches by making Ronaldo sit down and introduce him in die minutes or when they are badly need goals.
When Manchester City beat Manchester United with 6 to 3 goals, Ten Hag was asked why he didn't play Ronaldo but the excuse was that he don't want the match result to affect Christiano Ronaldo's record, but it's very obvious now that he didn't really like Ronaldo and want him out of his team. If he didn't play Ronaldo on Manchester City's match because of the bad career record it would give Ronaldo, would Ronaldo's record spoil after two zero on Tottenham Hotspur last weekend? Hell no, but since what all the fans want is winning, then they won't ask the coach why didn't he play Ronaldo. Before this time, he was claiming that Ronaldo is not fit enough to play, but how about now?
I think several things are mixed.
First, the player must be a professional not only when collecting the salary (millions of dollars) but also when playing, be it 90 minutes or 1 minute.
Second, the coach has the power to bring in any player at any time during the game, but it doesn't seem very coherent to me to bring in Ronaldo with less than five minutes to go.
Be that as it may, he has been, together with Messi, the best player in the world for a decade.
If he wanted to freeze the game he could put in any player other than Ronaldo. What the players don't understand is that, millionai
res or not, stars or not, they are always club players, that is, employees, very well paid that is. And when the company that owns the club, which is what they are now, decides to support the coach, the player must submit to his decisions.
But the thing about Ronaldo has a precedent. The same player wanted to go to other clubs in order to play the Champions League.
Perhaps the big mistake was made by Ronaldo himself when he returned to Manchester United thinking that they would respect him the same as he did when he left. Time goes by. And against that he can do nothing.
