Cristiano Ronaldo has not taken kindly to the news of being benched by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer for Manchester United vs Everton
Why Ole Gunnar Solskjaer does some of the things he does is something only the Norwegian knows. Despite underwhelming since he’s been at the helm of Manchester United with him yet to win a trophy with the club in three years, a time which has seen him splash 450 million pounds on transfers, Ole has managed to keep his job at the club.
Although its only the opening exchanges of the 2021/22 season, Ole has managed to hang onto his job at Manchester United owing to Cristiano Ronaldo. Ever since the Portuguese has made the move back to the Premier League from Juventus, he’s been a savior for Ole, scoring five times in five matches already.
Cristiano Ronaldo Livid At Ole Gunnar Solskjaer After Learning He’s Benched For Manchester United Vs Everton
The most crucial goal of Ronaldo’s second coming at Manchester United came earlier this week with him netting late against Villareal. The strike earned the home side a crucial 2-1 win, a goal which alluded to why Ronaldo is regarded as one of the best players to have ever graced the game.
However, despite his goal, Ole decided it was prudent to let out Ronaldo against Everton. The club’s Saturday afternoon encounter against Everton in the Premier League saw Ronaldo being left out of the playing 11 as the player was benched.
While Ole has gone onto justify his decision by citing it being in lieu of the congested fixture list, the latest development hasn’t gone down too well with Ronaldo. According to Express Sport, Ronaldo is said to have infuriated after learning of Ole’s decision with the player confident he was going to lead his side’s attack on the day.
