In round 12 of the English Premier League, Manchester United defeated Tottenham (2-0), and Ronaldo entered the game in the 89th minute. According to the tabloid “Daily Mail,” he did so after turning down his coach Eric Tin Hag’s plea to warm up and as a substitute minutes earlier.
For the upcoming match against Chelsea, Tin Hag opted to leave Ronaldo off the Manchester United roster, and “BBC” hinted that he would be left off in more games.
“As I have always done throughout my career, I try to live and play with respect for my colleagues, specialisation and coach. This has not changed, and I am the same professional person who was over twenty years,” Ronaldo wrote alongside a photo of himself wearing the Manchester United training shirt on his Facebook page.

He added: “I started playing at a very young age and the examples of the older and the most experienced players were always important to me, so I always try to be an example for young people, but unfortunately this is not always possible. ”
He went on: “I currently feel that I need to keep putting in a lot of effort at the United Training Center, help out my teammates, and get ready for every match.
”
“Surrendering to pressure is not an option. This is Manchester United, and we must stand united. Soon, we will be together again,” he said in his conclusion.
