Speculation continues to grow over a potential departure for Ronaldo from Old Trafford. The Portuguese star reportedly wants to continue playing in the UEFA Champions League, a competition the Red Devils will not be contending in this season. Meanwhile, United have made an embarrassing start to the season under new manager Erik ten Hag. The 13-time Premier League winners have lost both of their opening two games of the campaign. The Red Devils were beaten 2-1 by Brighton & Hove Albion at Old Trafford on August 7. They were then thrashed 4-0 by Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium on August 13. Ten Hag's side currently sit rock bottom of the Premier League. Rivaldo is shocked by the current situation at Manchester United, telling Betfair: "Man Utd have had a horrible start to the season with two losses to minor teams in the league, with the most recent one ending in a humiliating 4-0 defeat by Brentford" The Brazilian continued, "The team has great players who cannot create enough team spirit on the pitch and Cristiano Ronaldo seems to be more out than in, so these are moments of sadness for the Red Devils supporters." When Rivaldo was still playing, United were a top side contending both domestically and in Europe. The former Real Madrid forward alludes to this whilst touching on how times have changed at Old Trafford: "If someone told me this would happen five or six years ago, even after Sir Alex Ferguson had retired, I wouldn't believe it, especially because I remember how strong the club was not long ago; I've even seen it myself when facing them on some occasions."
