Cristiano Ronaldo was powerless to prevent Manchester United from losing 4-0 at Brentford after being handed his first start under new manager Erik ten Hag. The Portuguese striker was visibly frustrated after the final whistle and made his way straight to the tunnel instead of joining a number of his team-mates in clapping the visiting United supporters. Ronaldo also appeared to ignore Ten Hag on the touchline as the Dutchman stood and looked over the pitch with a pensive look on his face.
According to the Express, Cristiano Ronaldo looks to have snubbed Red Devils manager Erik ten Hag for a handshake while walking back into the tunnel.
Manchester United faced utter embarrassment in the hands of the Bees who ran riot against Erik ten Hag’s men going 4-0 up just 35 minutes into the game. Goals from Da Silva, Jensen, Ben Mee and Mbumeo were enough to secure Brentford three points.
To say that Man United had an awful game will be an understatement. Erik ten Hag’s men were extremely poor with a flurry of individual errors especially in the first half, none more glaring than David de Gea’s howler.
Ronaldo had a couple of glorious chances to convert in the second half but on both occasions, his headers failed to hit the target. The Portuguese superstar was far from his best last night but so were most of the Manchester United players.
In a video that has emerged in the aftermath of this disappointing performance from Man United, Ronaldo is seen walking back towards the tunnel shaking hands with a few players and personnel. He, however, does not offer a handshake to Ten Hag
Ronaldo’s future at Old Trafford is far from certain. Throughout the summer, he has been linked with a move away from the Manchester club but no transfer has materialised yet and the player finds himself stuck here.
Anyone who has seen Cristiano Ronaldo play in the first couple of matches this season can see that he looks far from happy. He looks like a man who does not want to belong here and this is something that the Red Devils need to sort out soon.
