Manchester United chief Erik ten Hag ought to drop Cristiano Ronaldo and Marcus Rashford for Monday's down with rivals Liverpool, as per Wayne Rooney.



Joined have made a sluggish beginning to life under Ten Hag, losing their initial two rounds of the Premier League season, including a 4-0 embarrassment at Brentford last end of the week.


A significant part of the consideration around the troubles at Old Trafford has zeroed in on Ronaldo, who purportedly needs to leave the club looking for Champions League football.


In his section for The Sunday Times, United's untouched top goalscorer Rooney communicated his conviction that his previous colleague Ronaldo ought to be avoided with regard aside, having recently said he figures the club ought to consent to sell the Portugal worldwide.


"The main goal is, against Liverpool, to simply contend and have a go," he composed. "Do that and the fans will acknowledge it, regardless of whether United get beaten. Play as they did against Brentford, and United will experience a far more terrible outcome than their 5-0 loss by Liverpool last season.


"I don't anticipate that that should occur, coincidentally - I can't see United winning, however I accept there'll be a response and they'll lose by the odd objective, or even grab a draw.


"Yet, I wouldn't play Cristiano Ronaldo, and I wouldn't play Marcus Rashford. On the off chance that I was in Ten Hag's position my fundamental concern would get energy on the pitch, and United's inability to select a No 9 methods they depended on Ronaldo against Brentford, despite the fact that he hadn't prepared a ton with the group. He appeared as though he really wants time to get match fit.


"Concerning Marcus, I think he really wants to do a ton of soul-looking and sort out what he needs, to his benefit, prior to whatever else. Since watching him is a genuine concern: he seems as though he needs to be anyplace yet on a football pitch. I haven't seen him bless the field for quite a while. His exhibitions have plunged - he hasn't been chosen by England for over a year.


"I'm coming from a position of needing the best for him. He's a beautiful youngster and a neighborhood chap who got through the positions at United, who everybody needs to see getting along admirably.


"In any case, you take a gander at the distinction between Marcus now and when he originally came into the group: the enthusiasm he showed, the grin all over when he scored. It's evening and day."


Rooney, whose D.C. Joined group experienced a 6-0 loss at home to Philadelphia Union in Major League Soccer on Saturday, likewise offered his perspective on United's looming marking of Casemiro from Real Madrid.


The Red Devils have been connected with a move for Frenkie de Jong from Barcelona all through the exchange window, however directed their concentration toward the Brazil global last week, concurring an arrangement on a basic level with the European bosses for a charge of around £60million (€70.7m).


Rooney doesn't know whether the 30-year-old is what his previous club needs, however conceded he is a capable player.


"Casemiro won't be qualified to confront Liverpool, which is a pity since he will without a doubt work on United," he composed. "He's a decent player. I've played against him and he'll bring a touch of character, a touch of work rate, however would he say he is precisely very thing United need? I don't know.


"This returns to the need to plan ahead. In a perfect world, they ought to sign players in their right on time to mid-twenties, and Casemiro is like Christian Eriksen - somebody who has been a decent player, however would they say they will assist the club with pushing ahead? Frenkie de Jong, Ten Hag's central midfield target, would be a superior fit.


"The Casemiro bargain appears to have appeared suddenly, and looks a responsive marking - I wouldn't believe on the off chance that he was a player distinguished as vital to get when Ten Hag showed up. It seems to be, having been not able to sign De Jong, United just responded to Casemiro being accessible."
