Solskjaer Sends Message To Cristiano Ronaldo Critics After Another Unbelievable Goal
A narrative was gathering strength that Cristiano Ronaldo made Man United a worse team because he does not press enough.
After the Atalanta game, however, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer took issue with such claims.
“Cristiano is great in front of goal,” the Man United head coach told BT Sport.
“If anyone wants to criticize him for effort and work rate just watch this game. Watch how he runs around.”
Cristiano Ronaldo was rewarded for his efforts with the match-winning goal ten minutes before the final whistle.
There’s no doubt now that he’ll start against Liverpool this weekend – with Cristiano in the team, United always stand a chance against any opponent.
