Cristiano Ronaldo: Man Utd star proved v Arsenal that he's still capable of pressing
Cristiano Ronaldo proved he can press in Manchester United’s Premier League clash against Arsenal on Sunday afternoon.
Ronaldo has found game-time hard to come by at the start of the season.
The Portuguese had started just one of United’s games going into the match against Arsenal.
And he was on the bench once again for the game against United’s old rivals.
There have been doubts whether Ronaldo has the capabilities to thrive in Erik ten Hag’s system.
The Dutchman’s system requires his players to press vigorously. Some think that Ronaldo, now 37, no longer has the legs needed to thrive under Ten Hag.
But he proved otherwise with a lively cameo against Arsenal.
