The coach Cristiano Ronaldo doesn't want for Manchester United

The arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo did not suppose that positive impulse that was expected in Manchester United. Despite the fact that his presence infects the English team, there was already controversy in the defeat of the team in the Champions League against the modest Young Boys when the Portuguese spent it giving instructions from the substitute bench, a gesture that they saw as negative about the Norwegian Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

And it is Solskjaer who is precisely under fire, since names of other coaches begin to sound to replace him if the Champions League campaign is in danger. Not achieving a victory on the second date, already at home, would be to throw away the chances.

Brilliant names such as Antonio Conte, Zinedine Zidane and even the Irishman Brendan Rodgers, currently at Leicester FC and with a past at Liverpool, appear among those that sound. Of these names there is one that Cristiano Ronaldo does not want: Antonio Conte.

The Italian has a reputation for being tough, disciplined and his methods are not the best among footballers. Their disputes with stars are known, as with Lukaku at Inter. Cristiano had already given his no to Conte when he sounded to take over at Juventus in 2019 to replace Allegri.
