Cristiano Ronaldo is going to have to accept: Dean Jones on Erik ten Hag's Manchester United appointment

Questions were asked about Ronaldo after Ten Hag's appointment

According to journalist Dean Jones, Cristiano Ronaldo will have to adapt his game to suit incoming manager Erik ten Hag. Jones said this is needed if he is to be successful under the Dutch manager at Old Trafford. The veteran goal machine has enjoyed a productive season in front of goal this campaign, but following poor performances by the rest of the team, they currently sit in sixth place.

Speaking to GiveMeSport, Dean Jones pointed out that Ronaldo would have to push himself to fit into the tactical setup of his incoming manager if he intends to stay and succeed at the club next season. He said:

“Ronaldo is going to have to accept the situation. How much he knows of ten Hag, I don’t know. But, it’s up to him to do his homework, understand his style of football, understand his philosophies.”

Ten Hag is widely expected to set Manchester United to press from the front as has been his preferred style. The demands of this tactical instruction may be an issue for Cristiano Ronaldo, who is currently in his late 30s.

However, with Ronaldo’s remarkable physical attributes and insatiable drive to win, it is likely that the Portuguese star will adapt. However, it also remains to be seen if he will even remain at the club next season.
