In a focus battle in the 19th round of the Premier League that ended in the early morning of December 28, Beijing time, Manchester United drew 1-1 away to bottom team Newcastle. With two games less, arsenals in fourth place are as many as 7 points apart, and the situation of competition for Champions League qualification is not optimistic. After the game, Manchester United legendary captain Gary Neville criticized the team's two core C Ronaldo and B Fee by name in the "Sky Sports" program.
Neville began by criticising the United squad: "They have been resting for 16 days and this is a good opportunity for the team to adapt to the new coaching tactical system. But from this game, Manchester United still haven't found the balance, in fact after norwich, I am very worried, the team does not have a sense of urgency, which is the basic element of the game. It can be said that in every battle they lost. Now United have too many attacking players and no defenders, and the performance on the pitch is a mess, which is not what Lonnick should do at Manchester United. ”
The legendary Manchester United captain has since criticized the Portuguese double star by name: "As the two big brothers in the dressing room, Ronaldo and B Fei always stared at other teammates on the pitch with complaining eyes, as if they felt that other Manchester United players were not good enough to deserve them, which should not be. Because it is a devastating blow to the self-confidence of young players. ”
In this game, C Ronaldo and B Fee performed poorly. Both received yellow cards, and B Fee would not even qualify for the next match against Burnley because of the accumulation of yellow cards. As for C Ronaldo, although he played the whole game, he only had 2 shots on goal, all of which did not hit the target. Hopefully, 3 days later in the league with Burnley, Ronaldo can regain his previous good goal-scoring form.
