In the summer, the five-time Ballon d'Or winner made it clear he wanted to leave Old Trafford due to United failing to secure Champions League football last season and the players having their wages docked as a result. But Ronaldo was unable to secure a move elsewhere and has now found first-team football hard to come by at United. The 37-year-old has made only one Premier League start under Ten Hag this season, coming in the 4-0 hammering away at Brentford, and has largely only been used in the Europa League. In United's recent 2-0 win over Tottenham, Ronaldo hit the headlines despite getting on the pitch when he stormed down the tunnel two minutes before the game had finished after being informed he wouldn't be coming on. Ten Hag handled the situation well, dropping the forward from his squad for the game with Chelsea before reintroducing him ahead of United's Europa League venture.

Everything is moving in the right direction for Erik ten Hag and Manchester United.
The Red Devils are unbeaten since October 2 and have shot up to fifth in the Premier League table, a point behind Eddie Howe’s Newcastle in fourth with a game in hand over the Magpies.
Off the pitch, things have arguably been looking up even more for Ten Hag. The Dutchman inherited a fragmented squad where much internal squabbling made its way outside the dressing room walls. Now, his Red Devils side appears unified and his new signings – particularly Casemiro, Antony and Lisandro Martinez – have settled in seamlessly.
The one minor problem putting a slight dampener on the fun is the ongoing Cristiano Ronaldo situation.
