“Buy Ronaldo again” – Erik ten Hag sent bold message by Manchester United fan to solve the crisis at Old Trafford
A Manchester United fan has called for bringing Cristiano Ronaldo back to Old Trafford, saying it will solve Erik ten Hag's problems.
The Red Devils are currently 13th in the Premier League table. They have managed to secure only two wins in the five games they have played in this season. Last Saturday, they suffered a 3-1 loss against Brighton & Hove Albion at Old Trafford.
Hence, after the home defeat, a fan was asked about the solution to Manchester United's troubles. Replying to the question, the Red Devils fan said that Erik ten Hag should bring back Cristiano Ronaldo. The fan said (via GOAL):
"Buy Ronaldo again."
Erik ten Hag was appointed as Manchester Untied's permanent manager in the summer of 2022. Cristiano Ronaldo shared a fractured relationship with the Dutch manager as he fell down the pecking order and was often benched for big games.
Ronaldo's explosive interview with British broadcaster Piers Morgan in November led to a mutual termination of his contract with Manchester United, with the Portuguese superstar joining Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr in January 2023.
Meanwhile, Erik ten Hag's side will now be traveling to the Allianz Arena to face Bayern Munich on Wednesday (September 20) in their 2023-24 UEFA Champions League opener.
