Ronald’s return didn’t work out, Pogba should leave. Rooney openly criticized Manchester United – SPORT.SK

today 13:03 | As historically the top scorer of the English football club Manchester United, Wayne Rooney is not satisfied with the way his former team is currently presented. In an interview with Sky Sports, he questioned the performances of Frenchman Paul Pogba and Portuguese Cristian Ronald, former teammates and currently the two biggest stars of the “Red Devils”. The current coach of the Derby County Second League team considers his former team a set of individuals. United will be without a trophy after the elimination of the Champions League and unbalanced results in the Premier League in the fifth season in a row. “I’ve seen them live a few times, they don’t look like a united team. If they make a mistake, it knocks them out and limits them,” Rooney said. Thirty-six-year-old Portuguese is the team’s top 18-goal scorer, but Rooney said his summer return to Old Tafford didn’t turn out as he had hoped. But it is no longer Cristiano as before. He’s getting older, but that’s life. He’s still dangerous at the opponent’s goal, but in many areas of the game, Manchester needs junior, ‘hungrier’ footballers, “Rooney continued.” Rebuilding a team is a long-term process. I wouldn’t mind leaving Paul Pogba in the summer. It got to the point where it would be better for him to change his place of work. But he has only shown glimpses at the club level in England of his genius, which he often admires on the French national team, “Pogbu said. He recently admitted that he was plagued by depression. German coach Ralf Rangnick could be replaced by Erik ten Hag or Mauricio Pochettino after the current season, and Rangnick will be “just” a sports advisor from the summer. He knows the Premier League, he can work with young players. But he needs enough time to put his style on the team. When he gets it, I think you would do well, “concluded Rooney, who has also played 120 matches in the national team jersey in his rich career.
