Former Manchester United Captain Roy Keane (Roy Keane) is dissatisfied with forward Cristiano Ronaldo continuing to play as a substitute in the 9th round of England Cup against Manchester City (3:6).

" Manchester United showed disrespect for Ronaldo. I think he should be fired in the transfer window this summer. I don't think the coach should have him on the bench. He is one of the greatest players of all time and he has the option to leave this summer. It's nonsense to say he has no choice. He has four or five very good choices," Roy Keane was quoted by The Mirror.

This season, Ronaldo has participated in eight games in various events, including one goal. Manchester United is writing a new chapter in the story, with Eric ten Hag serving as the club head. A serious question immediately emerged - on the page of the book, what is Cristiano Ronaldo's location. The Portuguese striker has only appeared in the starting lineup in one game, and in seven games he spent only 207 minutes on the court in total.

This Dutch expert has been successful in Ajax , and it will be fun to watch Manchester United's tactics and game transformation. At present, he has not left the 4-2-3-1 formation. Christian Eriksen , Tyriel Maracia and Lisandro Martinez immediately took a place in the starting lineup. They greatly strengthened the left, accounting for 38% of the attacks.

Red Devils has an average of 48.9% of the playing time to control the ball, of which 34% of the game time is on the defensive end and 39% are in the midfield. Players have 10.7 interceptions per game (the fourth indicator of the Premier League), and the team has established their own matches early due to high pressure and counterpressure as widely accumulated elements.

player performed 12.5 shots, of which 4.7 shots hit the target (8th indicator). In seven games, there were only 8 goals, only 0.81 goals less than the expected number (xG). Last season, Cristiano Ronaldo scored 21 points in the "goal + assist" system - (18+3). Marcus Rashford obviously does not have the scoring talent like Portugal center.
