United do not achieve stability and this causes tensions. It’s natural. But the alarms begin to sound when the relationship between the coach and the star of the team breaks down. Rangnick and Cristiano Ronaldo do not live an idyllic ‘marriage’. In AS we already reported the fire that both fanned, with the coach throwing darts at the striker (“he should score more goals, it’s obvious”) and this one quarantining the level on the benches of the exarchist from the Red Bull factory. Recent games have not improved the context, with the Portuguese star experiencing a streak that he is not used to: one goal in the last ten games. Now, Rangnick’s public taunt has turned into internal doubt.

“Rangnick’s patience is wearing thin with Ronaldo”affirm sources consulted by the Manchester Evening News, local Mancunian newspaper. They emphasize his lack of tact lately and that Cristiano “seems to have lost confidence for the first time in his career”. The German is not convinced and has his reservations about having CR7 the next course. Moment in which he, if there is no unexpected swerve (Ten Hag and Pochettino are the favorites to take the reins of the club), will take up a position as a consultant to the Red Devils. You will lose a say in technical decisions, but not in roster settings. The maximum tension.
Likewise, the footballer, at 37 years old, wants challenges that allow him to compete to win the Champions League. At United, the latter seems chimerical at the moment. In fact, as this newspaper reported, Cristiano will look for a team in the summer yes the red devils they fail to qualify for the top continental competition. with five Orejonas, his goal is to catch up with Gento, who lifted six. Direct competition with his footballing nemesis for so many years, a Leo Messi who has four, but who at PSG handles much greater possibilities than those of the Portuguese in Manchester.

Cristiano’s numbers this season, in the Premier.
BeSoccer Pro (BeSoccer Pro)
Rangnick has acknowledged that it is “obvious” that the team needs to sign a young forward and with gunpowder in the summer, something that puts the continuity of the five-time Ballon d’Or winner even more in doubt. It all started with fireworks, with 14 goals in his first 20 games in his second stage in the entity, but the last ten clashes, as we anticipated, have made the statistical sheet ugly. In addition to assuming his worst scoring slump since the 2008-09 campaign. With 15 goals, Cristiano is still the team’s top scorer.
The goal, problem in Manchester
Although this last detail points directly to the footballer called to lead the mancuniana offensive next to the star of Madeira: Marcus Rashford. A shoulder injury complicated the attacker’s start, but five goals in 25 games is a very poor baggage for a footballer of talent, smell and, above all, the potential of Marcus. Anthony Elanga He is uncovering himself as a plunger in recent games, but he is still a winger, and 19 years old, with a good relationship with the goal. Cavani he does not bury the physical problems and his coexistence with Cristiano in the eleven seems complicated. Not forgetting the Greenwood case. Haaland doesn’t stop playing for a reason. The second leg against Atleti, after saving face in the first leg (1-1), could be definitive. Ultimate balm or fire.
