Cristiano Ronaldo, the team’s best player, declined to enter a substitute in the Tottenham Hotspur game, according to Manchester United coach Eric Tin Hag, who noted that the player needed to get discipline but also emphasized how important the player was to the team.
The cameras’ lenses took Ronaldo while leaving the “Old Trafford” stadium minutes before the end of the Tottenham match, which was held last Wednesday in the 12th round of the Premier League “Premier League”, and ended with the victory of the Red Devils with a clean double.
The request by Tin Hag to enter a substitute during the last minutes of the game, according to the British publication “Daily Mail” on Thursday, was rejected by Ronaldo, who subsequently departed the stadium.
The Dutch coach said, “Yes, it happened,” in response to Tin Haji’s question about whether it was real during a news conference today, Friday.
At a press conference held this afternoon to discuss the Chelsea game scheduled for tomorrow, Saturday, Tin Haji stated, “The scenes of what happened will remain between me and Ronaldo, but the statement issued by the club was clear, in my opinion, on any case Ronaldo is still an important player for the team.”
As the team’s first official, the coach has a responsibility to set expectations, uphold moral principles, and maintain order. I have to maintain control over the team’s ideals and standards.
”
I told Ronaldo that what happened was unacceptable, not only from him, but from everyone, this is the second time, and there are consequences, we will miss him tomorrow in the Chelsea match, it is a loss for the team, but the punishment is necessary at the level of behavior.
” Manchester United announced in a brief official statement yesterday that Ronaldo was excluded from the Chelsea match scheduled to be held in round 13 as a punitive measure.
When asked if Ronaldo still had a significant position at Manchester United, Tin Haji responded, “He is still a crucial member of the team, according to the club’s statement, in my opinion.
” “I understand that there are questions about Ronaldo, but at the same time there is an important match against Chelsea, my focus and focus of the assistant staff and players on the match, we have to win,” he said.
And when asked if the Ronaldo controversy will distract the team’s attention from the Chelsea game, the Dutch coach responded, “When you play at this level of football, there is always noise and speculations, but you have to maintain your focus.
” Ronaldo has been away from the basic formation of Manchester United in the Premier League since the beginning of the current season, as most of his participation in the competition came as an alternative.
In the English Premier League, Ronaldo appeared in 8 games for Manchester United, including two starts and six substitute appearances. He missed two matches.
In another setting, Tin Hag said he opted to bench Anthony Marcial, the team’s standout player, from the Chelsea game tomorrow owing to his lack of preparation.
With 19 points after 10 games, Manchester United is sixth in the Premier League standings.
