Even when Manchester United have played well without his seismic presence, Cristiano Ronaldo continues to dominate the headlines.
As the Red Devils produced a stellar performance to beat Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 on Wednesday thanks to goals from Fred and Bruno Fernandes, Ronaldo made sure that most of the post-match chat was about him. Having spent 89 miserable minutes on the bench and refusing to come on as a late substitute, the 37-year-old striker stormed down the tunnel and left Old Trafford before his teammates had even got back in the dressing room after full-time.
Erik ten Hag promised to "deal" with the situation on Thursday - and he certainly has.
