So many gems in this one

Ten Hag changed his position in the aftermath of a 4-0 loss at Brentford. Hired from Ajax in April, United’s new manager blamed the defeat on individual errors and reprimanded his players for a lack of physical effort. Their day off was cancelled and the team called into Carrington for running drills by way of punishment.

Ronaldo is understood to have been unimpressed with Ten Hag’s attempt to shift responsibility to the players and their physical output in London. The Dutchman, who’d never resorted to such antediluvian disciplinary measures across his five seasons at Ajax, made it known that he was now open to selling Ronaldo, and hasn’t started him since.

An initial survey of potential suitors identified Bayern Munich and Chelsea as the most appealing destinations, only for both to change tack. Chelsea’s new ownership group liked the idea of rebuilding their attack around Ronaldo, but Thomas Tuchel — advised by his friend Rangnick — opposed the transfer.

A return to his first club, Sporting, has been much discussed in Portugal, yet their coach has let his opposition to a transfer become known to local media. Already publicly critical of Sporting’s decision to sell Matheus Nunes to Wolverhampton Wanderers, Rúben Amorim has intimidated that he might walk out on his contract were Ronaldo signed. Ronaldo is understood to find the posturing of a coach whose team has won just one of three Liga Portugal matches this season laughable.

Arsenal two seasons ago lose this match.

Ødegaard realizing his potential. He was class all over the pitch today. Amazing shift.b
