Red Devils manager Ralf Rangnick reflected on Cristiano Ronaldo’s controversial reaction against Brentford.
A little about the topic
The German football manager instructed Ronaldo to take over as manager after he retires, adding that the Portuguese player will someday understand why a player of his status needs to be framed in certain situations. Cristiano was visibly disappointed as he soared in the Red Devils’ recent win over Brentford, drawing criticism for his reaction to exiting the game. But Ralf interprets Cristiano’s attack not as a sign of disrespect, but rather as an emotional reaction to a situation that the manager cannot face with emotion.
What did Rangnick say about Cristiano Ronaldo?
Ralf Rangnick said he didn’t see or interpret at all that he was challenging him. according to Ralf, Cristiano Ronaldo simply showed, perhaps too emotionally, that he was not happy to be replaced. But, as Ralf said, it wasn’t the first time. Rangnick thinks that if you look at the moment when Ferguson changed or other coaches like Sarri or whoever in the past, his reaction was quite similar, which shows, after all, it has nothing to do with the manager at that time . Ralf Rangnick also said that it was his own ambition and his desire to stay on the field.
Rangnick thinks that at one stage Ronaldo will also be a manager himself, maybe in a couple of years, or maybe in 10 years if he plays another five years, and then he will have the same experience. Ralf doesn’t blame him for this, but obviously any manager, Ralf thinks it shouldn’t be too emotional. According to Ralf Rangnick also, in front of the TV cameras, he doesn’t think it will benefit anyone; not for his benefit, not for the benefit of teammates. After all, this is an emotional game, and the players are emotional, and Ralf didn’t take it personally at all.
