Ronaldo became Manchester United’s on-field captain in last week’s Premier League game against Wolves. However, Manchester United coach Rangnick said that Ronaldo will not be appointed as the official captain of the team, as long as Maguire can play the captain.
The current captain of Manchester United is central defender Maguire, but he missed Manchester United’s game against Wolves due to injury, and Ronaldo wore the captain’s armband. The last time Ronaldo served as Manchester United captain was in Manchester United’s Premier League game against Bolton in March 2008. . It is a pity that Manchester United lost 0-1 at home to Wolves in this game, and captain Ronaldo failed to bring victory to the Red Devils. After the game, many experts and fans were debating whether Ronaldo should be officially appointed as Manchester United captain, and there are rumors that Ronaldo and Maguire are fighting for the leadership of the Manchester United dressing room.
Manchester United manager Rangnick made it clear on Friday: “I don’t think there’s a reason to do it (change the captain) now because Maguire has been the captain so far. As long as Maguire can play, he will be the captain. If Maguire is unavailable, someone else will have to be captained and that may be decided on a game-by-game basis and on the players on the pitch.”
Ronaldo also publicly questioned the mentality of some Manchester United players in an interview this week. Rangnick said: “I think it has to change the mentality through every training and every game, of course it also has to do with what happens in the game. “If things don’t go well, you have to come up with a way of doing things that can be a role model, not only with experienced players like Ronaldo, but also with young players who have to handle the situation correctly.”
Rangnick continued: “As I’ve said before, so far if one of our players isn’t giving his all in a game, then I’ll fix that and you can rest assured. But so far I haven’t seen that. There is this situation, but for some players, it is difficult for them to continue to play well. For example, Rashford, he played well in the first 20 minutes of the game against Villa and was very excited, but after 30 minutes of the game He’s getting worse and worse, he’s not as energetic as the first 30 minutes. But I don’t see any player who doesn’t care about the club or doesn’t want to play at the highest level.”
Cristiano Ronaldo previously missed Manchester United’s FA Cup match against Villa on Monday due to injury, but this weekend’s Premier League Manchester United will play Villa again on the road, and Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to return from injury. In addition, Maguire, Sancho, Phil Jones will also return from injury. According to Rangnick, Maguire will wear the captain’s armband again in this Premier League match.Return to Sohu, see more
