Former Manchester United captain Gary Neville described Cristiano Ronaldo's decision to walk out of Old Trafford ahead of the conclusion of Wednesday night's 2-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur as 'unacceptable'.
Ronaldo, who was dropped to the bench for the visit of Spurs, refused to come on as a substitute late on in the contest, instead choosing to get up off the bench, walk back down the tunnel and head for home. Manager Erik ten Hag chose to take disciplinary action against the forward, leaving him out of the squad for Saturday's teatime trip to Stamford Bridge to face Chelsea.
The Portuguese international was also forced to train on his own at Carrington on Friday, leaving question marks surrounding his future at the club. He has started just twice in the Premier League so far this season, highlighting that he has been out-of-favour under Ten Hag.
