The manager dropped the veteran after he refused to come on as a substitute in the game.

"Ronaldo refused to come on as a substitute against Spurs, yes," said Ten Hag.

After he was spotted leaving Old United before the end of a preseason game, Ten Hag said that he had already been warned about his behavior.

He said that he was responsible for the top sport culture here and that he had to set standards and control them.

I have to control the team's values and standards because we are a team. I told him that it was unacceptable but he was not the only one and that there would be consequences if it happened again.

The Manchester United legacy is being ruined byRonaldo.

Next time there has to be consequences, I warned at the beginning of the season. You have to fulfill certain standards to play football. I have to take care of it.

On Friday, he didn't train with the rest of the squad and won't play in the game against the Blues.

He is expected to rejoin the main group on Monday and Ten Hag said he is an important player.

"Cristiano and I are talking," Ten Hag said, who will be without Anthony Martial for the game against the Blues as he continues his recovery from a back injury.

Tomorrow will be the last time we will see him. It's a missed opportunity for the squad, but it's important for the attitude and mentality of the group and now we have to focus on the next game. He's still an important part of the team.
