A substitute arrangement sparked a series of storms, and that's what happened between Cristiano Ronaldo and Ronnick. There are various versions of the statement, some media reports said that C Ronaldo returned to Portugal to recuperate, and some said that C Ronaldo was not injured at all, or that the minor injury was not a big problem and still insisted on starting, but was rejected by Ronnick and returned to Portugal in a rage. But in either case, the 37-year-old Ronaldo has now become a "hot potato" in the hands of the Manchester United manager.
Earlier, the Sun newspaper followed up on the storm between C Ronaldo and Ronnick. The media said that C Ronaldo is currently training alone at the Carrington base and is recovering from a hip injury. He was still unhappy with the failure to start the Manchester Derby last weekend, with agent Mendes trying to mediate his relationship with the team, but with little success. In the weekend match against Tottenham, Ronnick wanted to use the B fee to match the "pseudo-9" Pogba. Ronnick told Cristiano Ronaldo that he wanted to use some new faces and hoped that Ronaldo would play a role from the bench, but Ronaldo still insisted on starting, believing that he could have an impact on the game from the beginning.
With Cristiano Ronaldo's desire to win, he can't miss an important game like Manchester City. Although he may have minor injuries, minor injuries cannot reach the line of fire is a purpose he has insisted on for many years. But from Ronnick's side, he hopes that Cristiano Ronaldo can recuperate and prepare for the next big game.
We can see that from the 1-1 draw to Southampton, Ronaldo has started 5 consecutive games, 4 full-time kicks, 1 for 85 minutes. Manchester United will have a Champions League quarter-final against Atletico. Cristiano Ronaldo is 37 years old, and his desire to fight is still strong, but Lonnick made the decision to replace him from the perspective of the player's physical health and the team's tactical situation, which is the root of the conflict.
There is no doubt that Ronaldo's wave of operations has been widely criticized. Skeptics argue that he should not put himself above the team and that it is the player's duty to obey the manager's arrangements.
In addition, the Sun also said that after the Manchester City derby, agent Mendes tried to calm the mood of C Ronaldo, who believed that Manchester United was not on the right path. Although less than a year after his return, Ronaldo is already thinking about leaving the team. Cristiano Ronaldo did return to United's training base and was the last to leave, but the rest of The Manchester United players have already felt Ronaldo's dissatisfaction. Cristiano Ronaldo's advisers have told United executives that if they can't get the top 4 in the league, then the Portuguese star will leave.
I have to say that C Luo's every move has been put in the spotlight. The first one to leave is not OK, the last one is not enough to leave, in short, no matter what, the media has a point of hype. But this is not impossible, as reported by The Sun, and if United don't finish in the top 4 this season, Ronaldo does have the possibility of leaving the team.
For Ronaldo, 37, the Champions League is a must. Why did he leave Juve last summer? It is because juve cannot see their competitiveness in the Champions League, and the consecutive knockout matches have collapsed into the sand. Before joining Manchester United, Manchester City was the ideal place to go, but in the end Ferguson personally called and invited, and the Manchester United executives followed up in time to bring Cristiano Ronaldo back to the Dream Theatre.
United finished second in the league last season and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's rebuilding looks like it's steadily advancing. Coupled with the summer window's succession of heavy reinforcements to sancho and Varane, Ronaldo saw the possibility of leading Manchester United to the title. But everything in the new season failed to go as expected, but became the target of public criticism, and C Ronaldo's heart is certain. Therefore, once Manchester United misses the top 4 this summer, Ronaldo will most likely seek to leave the team, and this is not necessarily a bad thing for Manchester United, because this is a wrong reunion.
