Cristiano Ronaldo has been visibly disturbed by his current predicament at Manchester United. The Portuguese have a lot to complain about, from being denied a move away from Old Trafford to being benched
"Unhappy" Cristiano Ronaldo and his equations with Erik ten HagOne of the main reasons for his disappointment could be United's boss Erik ten Hag's training and tactics. The Portuguese forward thinks they are better off playing differently.
In addition, Ronaldo's performances against Cypriot side Omonia in the Europa League and Spain in the Nations League have led to increased discontent.
He is a substitute in Erik ten Hag's Manchester United team. The Dutch coach and the Portuguese star are not on amicable terms.
What are the problems Cristiano Ronaldo faces in Erik Ten Hag's coaching?
Although he is a substitute in Ten Hag's style of play, Ronaldo is more irked about ten Hag's coaching methods. He believes the coach is slightly stubborn and partial towards an approach that worked for Ajax.
However, under the current regime, the side has disastrously lost to Brentford and Manchester City.
When did Cristiano Ronaldo's problems start?
Ronaldo's issues with the club started when he couldn't leave Old Trafford during this past summer transfer window. Both sides were on different pages prompting Ronaldo to avoid training in the early days of the ongoing season.
Other reports also state that the striker is deprived of respect at Old Trafford. Furthermore, he might have to stay in the club due to the lack of suitors.
Ten Hag has shown more preference towards other players due to the increased pace of Premier League matches. The 37-year-old has scored one goal for United this season against Sheriff Tiraspol in the Europa League.
His form has significantly dipped, and no other club has shown any active interest in him, leaving him exposed to more disappointment in the future.
