The players who were relegated since the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo to Manchester United

Cristiano Ronaldo returned to Manchester United and it can be said that it was at a very opportune moment. The team is not a big deal but with CR7 in their ranks they can at least afford the luxury of dreaming of aspiring to titles. The Portuguese has already scored 9 goals in this 2021-22 season in 11 games between the Premier League and the Champions League, with already unforgettable nights.

However, some criticize that his arrival disrupted the coach's original plans with other signings. That's what a Liverpool legend, John Barnes, now a tv commentator, thinks about CR7's role in the team, which covers one of the great figures who was totally overshadowed: Jadon Sancho.

"Jadon Sancho had been told that he would be the future, but now he is a secondary player. The signing of Sancho was not necessarily a mistake. The signing of Cristiano was a mistake. How many main men do you want, instead of having others? that they can complement that? The balance of Manchester United is not right", he opined.

Barnes added the seriousness of the present of the former Borussia Dortmund player: "Sancho signed for 85 million to be one of the main players in the attack, but now they have him sitting on the bench. So how can we see more of him? I feel sorry for him, and to some extent Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood. Cristiano Ronaldo and Bruno Fernandes dominate the team's offensive momentum".

Another player who suffered the same fate was Edinson Cavani, who although he can play alongside Portugues, lost his place since the arrival of former Juventus, and as if that were not enough, even the number on his back. It is that, since the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo, he happened to have the 7, relegating the Uruguayan.
