Ten Hag Dismisses Ronaldo's Criticism Amid Struggles

Erik ten Hag has dismissed criticism from Cristiano Ronaldo, who accused the Manchester United manager of lacking ambition by publicly stating the team cannot currently compete for the Premier League and Champions League titles. Ronaldo, who left United in acrimony in 2022, believes the club needs a complete rebuild and should not rule out winning major trophies. Ten Hag responded by asserting that everyone is entitled to their opinion, but emphasized that his focus remains on winning trophies and integrating young players despite the team's transitional phase and current injury challenges. United, currently 14th in the league, seeks to bounce back from recent defeats as they prepare for their upcoming match against Southampton.
