The legendary captain of Manchester United, Roy Keane has sharply criticized Manchester United for the disrespect they have shown towards Cristiano Ronaldo this season.
Today, the Portuguese sat on the bench for the entire game against City, which United lost 3-6. According to the former Irish international, it is absolutely unacceptable, regardless of the arguments of Eric Ten Haag.
“Manchester United showed disrespect to Ronaldo. I think they should have let him leave in the summer transfer window. It’s ridiculous to keep a player like him on the bench. Even today, why didn’t he come on in the second half? What if it’s 4-0, maybe he would have scored because he has the most chances for that. Well, Martial came in today and scored two, but I’m talking generally, Ronaldo can’t stay on the bench.
People are overwhelmed by the fact that he didn’t press and didn’t go back. If he scores 20-25 goals, I don’t even need him to play defense,” said Keane, among other things.
Last season Ronaldo scored 24 goals in 38 appearances in all competitions. This one is only one goal away, and that’s in the Europa League, and in the English Championship, he still hasn’t managed to score even though United have already played seven games.
