Tensions at Manchester United appear to be increasing after it emerged that Cristiano Ronaldo committed an act of defiance after discovering he had been snubbed by Ralf Rangnick.
Ronaldo was absent from the Red Devils dreadful defeat to Manchester City on Thursday, with Rangnick explaining he had suffered a recurrence of a hip flexor injury.
Without the Portuguese superstar, Jadon Sancho, Anthony Elanga, Paul Pogba and Bruno Fernandes started in the forward positions in a 4-2-2-2 formation.
