Former Arsenal striker Ian Wright has praised Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag for not 'embarrassing' Cristiano Ronaldo during the derby defeat to Manchester City.
The Reds lost 6-3 to Pep Guardiola's side at the Etihad earlier this month, with the United manager opting against bringing Ronaldo on, despite the Dutchman making use of all five of his substitutions.
Following the match, Ten Hag claimed that he left the 37-year-old forward on the bench partly out of respect to his remarkable career. However, the decision to snub the Portuguese international led to widespread criticism from a number of former players and pundits, including Paul Scholes and Roy Keane.
