Manchester United supporters made their feelings on Cristiano Ronaldo abundantly clear this weekend with their response to the Portuguese’s withdrawal against Newcastle United.
The veteran forward was selected to start against the Magpies at Old Trafford due to the absence of Anthony Martial, whilst Red Devils academy graduate Marcus Rashford had to make do with a place on the bench due to illness. Ronaldo however could not inspire Erik ten Hag ’s men as they stumbled to a miserable 0-0 draw against Newcastle - a result that leaves the side fifth in the current Premier League standings.
Whilst the result left members of the United squad furious, Ronaldo himself was left upset with Ten Hag’s decision in particular to substitute him with his side chasing a winner.
