Manchester United need to make a firm decision over Cristiano Ronaldo's future - and Erik ten Hag must be the one to make it.
The future of the five-time Ballon d'Or winner has been hotly debated all summer. With just over two weeks left to go in the transfer window, time is running out for United to conclusively decide what they want to do with their seemingly 'wantaway' striker.
After Ten Hag's attempt to play Christian Eriksen as a false nine against Brighton backfired, he decided to give the fans what they wanted and play Ronaldo as a striker from the outset against Brentford.
However, as we all know, that did not go to plan either and the humiliating defeat will see the Dutchman go back to the training ground once again to find a solution to United's woeful start.
