Cristiano Ronaldo’s absence against Manchester City is not a big loss, Gary Neville has said. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, Marcus Rashford will be more dangerous on the counter-attack in Ronaldo’s absence, and that will surely suit the team better.
Neville added that MUFC needs to be dangerous at the Etihad, and they’re better off with Rashford up front.
His words, “Manchester United will be playing on the counter,”
“Over the last three or four years here, particularly under Ole, United were a counter-attacking team, really comfortable sitting back and punching out through Rashford and others. I think that will be exactly the same today.”
“Ronaldo being out of the team, I could never say it’s a positive but I don’t see it as a big loss like in other games. I actually think that on the counter-attack, United need to be dangerous today and they’re better off with Rashford up front counter-attacking than they would be with Ronaldo.”
