Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag provides witty response when asked if Cristiano Ronaldo would start against FC Sheriff

By Apratim Banerjee Modified 15 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Erik ten Hag reveals whether Cristiano Ronaldo would start again FC Sheriff Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag gave a disguised answer when asked whether Cristiano Ronaldo would start for the Red Devils in their next Europa League game. United are set to take on FC Sheriff in their second game of the UEFA Europa League campaign on Thursday, September 15. Ten Hag's men succumbed to a 1-0 home defeat against Real Sociedad in their opening fixture of the tournament. Moldovan Champions Sheriff are meanwhile coming off a 3-0 win against Omonia in their opening fixture. Ronaldo has been used as a substitute in all of United's last four Premier League games and the Red Devils have won all of those matches. The five-time Ballon d'Or winner was a part of the team's starting XI against Real Sociedad. However, Manchester United tasted defeat during that contest. When asked whether the Portuguese legend will be starting for United in Moldova, Ten Hag said (as quoted by Manchester Evening News): "I'm sorry but the Moldovan fans will have to wait until tomorrow." Ronaldo is yet to open his goalscoring tally for the season. The legendary forward is without a goal or assist after seven games this term. Out of these seven, only two have been starts; on each in the league and Europa League.

United, meanwhile, will desperately need a win to put themselves in a good position in the group. While Sheriff is not a renowned name, they defeated Real Madrid and Shakhtar Donetsk in the UEFA Champions League last season. Ten Hag acknowledged the same as he added: "It's quite clear, they beat Real Madrid and Shakhtar, they are capable. We have to make it our game but we are conscious of that fact. They are a serious and decent opponent and we have to play our best for the win."
