In the match against Brighton, Ronaldo scored his first goal of 2022, and the famous host Pierce Morgan said, "The problem for Manchester United is not Ronaldo, but the lack of 10 other capable players like Ronaldo. However, the statistics of Sky Sports show that the media's doubts about Ronaldo are not empty.
Ahead of the first game against Brighton, Sky Sports has counted four of United's five strikers in the Premier League this season. Ronaldo averaged only 0.3 tackles, 2 breaks, 16.1 sprints and 9.3 km per game, all four of which were at the bottom of the 5.
The most beautiful of the statistics is Elanga, who runs an average of 11.7 km per game, with 1.0 tackles, 4.3 breaks and 28.7 sprints. Cavani averaged 11.6km per game, but only had 13 sprints.
In terms of running distance, Elanga, Cavani and Sancho are all more than 10.8 km, while Rashford is only 9.9 km. In terms of sprints, Erlanga, Sancho and Rashford all exceeded 20, and Cavani finished bottom with 13.
After the draw with Southampton, Scholes criticised the Attitude of the Manchester United players, "Look at the Squad of Manchester United, they have a lot of talented players. But even if you're talented, you have to work hard. We don't know what's going on the training ground, we don't know the attitude of the players, they either don't get instructions or they don't want to take it. ”
Lonnick then responded, "The question is not how much we run, but how we become more compact and aggressive." United have never been a team that has been pushing for opponents, and it is impossible to change such habits in a few weeks. ”
O'Harara defended Cristiano Ronaldo, "You have some midfielders who run crazy and try to grab opponents, but you have to have a player who can win the game for you, and that's what Cristiano Ronaldo does." However, after Ronnick took charge, Ronaldo only scored 3 goals in 10 games, and his efficiency dropped significantly.
