“Greenwood and Rashford are afraid of Cristiano”

New criticism of the Red Devils ‘performance at St James’ Park last Monday continues to emerge. Edinson Cavani saved a point by scoring in the second half of a match in which the Mancunians had more shadows than lights. Cristiano Ronaldo is once again the target of criticism.

“It seems that he is only interested in his own goals”former soccer player Gabriel Agbonlahor told Football Insider. “Ronaldo was sulking throughout the game. He gestured with his arms because he had no chances. And then he ran off the field, sulking, and I imagine he would be sulking in the locker room too. He is a fantastic player who has had a fantastic career, but It is no longer what it was”.

According to the former Aston Villa, three footballers have been influenced by Ronaldo’s attitude and explains that Manchester United played their best game under Ralf Rangnick when the Portuguese was a substitute against Chelsea. “If I am Rashford, Greenwod or Sancho I would be afraid to shoot. Whenever they do, he raises his hands and tells them why they didn’t pass the ball to him ”.

“There is no harmony in the dressing room. Rashford and Greenwood’s form has deteriorated since Ronaldo arrived. They cannot express themselves, it is as if they think they have to pass the ball to Ronaldo or create an occasion for Ronaldo. Before Ronaldo arrived, Greenwood faced rivals and shot, now he no longer does”.

“If it was Rashford, Greenwood or Sanche, I’d wonder why we brought it in. Manchester United played their best game of the season against Chelsea, with Ronaldo on the bench. Rashford, Greenwood and Sancho can play in a three-way attack by rotating positions and running on the back. If the coach had personality, he would leave Ronaldo out of the next game. “
