Yeah if he decides he wants to stay here watching Elanga play. He will want off too, a deal will be made.
Ronaldo | Refused to come on as sub, left OT | Axed from squad for Chelsea & fined 2 weeks wages

Should've announced his retirement.
Are you for real? The team is starting to establish a new identity and to become a very dominant unit despite being short of a few new elements to come. When the team wins, no player has a right to behave like that, heat of the moment or not. If Ronaldo can't show any better that the team comes before his own ego, then he has no right to be in the match squad. Zlatan had to suck it up in Milan, accept whatever minutes he was given, and let that approach serve as an inspiration for the younger players.
Despite that last statement on Instagram, Ronaldo has to do a lot better than that if he wants to be in everyone's good graces again.
Perfect summary!
I guess that's an apology then
In his final season before his final retirement, Scholes came on very late on in a few matches. And nothing happened.
It's not about handling a legend. It's about handling a legend who is an arsehole.
A manager should be free to bring on anyone he thinks is right at any given time.
Redcafe, Facebook, twitter. The latter seems a bit less fussed over it all.
this has all worked out perfectly for ten hag.
My name? Do you mean a username I picked on here when I was 18 years old?
He might not. World Cup next month then it’s practically January.
What a cnut.
No apology nah ?
A whole lot of nothingness. Feck off.
The Ronnie-brigade will say this is greatest apology of all time - GAOAT.
The purpose of that message was to tell us that he played elite football for 20 years.
No I just want to see him gone. He doesn't give a feck about United and would rather see us lose without him than win. We're better off without characters like that.
dem bootsMy name? Do you mean a username I picked on here when I was 18 years old?
A lot of words without saying much. An implied admission that he was in the wrong was probably hard enough for him to even make. I suspect that we'll see him back in the EL vs Sheriff but his minutes will be limited even more than now until January.
Last year smash a young fans phone, this year walk off because he doesn't get subbed off, the sooner he's shipped out the better.
When he writes shit like "I've always done, I haven't changed" etc, it's trying him to side step what he did.
Age has caught up with him, he's over the hill.
All three? Have you no friends?
And people are acting fairly logically I think. The highest paid team member of global sporting institution acting like a spoiled child for the benefit of the global TV audience because, although the team had a fantastic night, he didnt play, is always going to be news. Which is why the prick did it.
if only the club itself wernt that fussed
He just wrote the word 'elite' first and padded it out.
The amusing thing is Ronaldo has made Ten Hag's life quite easy.
I don't think Erik was ever in love with the idea of starting Ronaldo too often despite what he said in public. His actions as far as picking him tell their own story. He was at best willing to placate him to maintain squad morale and freshen things up. I think he's just a body to Erik ten Hag because he knows he's past it and former glories mean little in terms of tangible results on pitch. A body that can fill in while Martial is injured.
By acting like an idiot he just makes the decision making very easy, he can be left out with nobody really questioning his treatment of the player because it's now just a manager doing what a manager has to do. Theres no grey area, and it may hasten Ronaldo's leaving which is probably what the manager wanted anyway.

Dont agree with Goldbridge often, but his take on "the situation" is spot on.
When you say friends do you mean best friends (BFs) or best friends forever (BFFs)?
I have 3 BFs and 2 BFFs.
Too late.
This is your best post in this thread.
I agree with this. Think ETH thought he could utilise Ronaldo in the right set up and be a useful player at times. Him not turning up to pre-season meant he wasn't match fit and not used to his tactics and now this just gives him an easy way not to play him. It's a shame as if Ronaldo could humble himself to be a squad option and take on board ETH's instructions he'd be a good option to have in the squad.
Highly unlikely. Does he not call anyone who doesn't adore Ronaldo a 'hater'?
What did he say?
I forgot a word here. Thank you sir.Totally, especially after last night's performance.
"united we must stand", writes the man who refused to come on and left before the end of the game. The audacity
Piers Morgan having a go:
The way Ten Hag seems to delight in humiliating
@Cristiano is pathetic. Sticking the world’s greatest ever footballer on the bench, making him repeatedly warm up, then not even use him as a sub, is just staggeringly disrespectful to United’s top scorer last season.
I post this just in case anyone needed further reassurance that EtH has done totally the right thing. Piers Morgan vehemently disagreeing with it, what more could anyone need by way of confirmation.

Some people just can’t say sorry. It’s because they think they’re better.
Somebody needs to punch Piers Morgan in the face. Repeatedly.
Piers Morgan gravitates towards anyone else with a fragile ego. Nothing else to see here. Two man childs.
Is it? We agreed to sell him but literally nobody wanted him.
He hasn’t a clue mate.
