He was the only player substituted in the match, he didn't like being replaced

Erik ten Hag is varying his strategies every game depending on the opponent, in this case this game against Newcastle would mean the start of a run of crucial games in a few days, the game against Tottenham is on Wednesday and they will visit Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, both games against contending teams.

Playing against teams from the so-called "Big six" is a very complicated task, the opponents of this group are the contenders for the Premier League title, they are the ones who compete for a place every year in the Champions League, now facing them twice in a week is a more complicated task, the physical issue of the players is good, but this still represents a big challenge to be fulfilled.

The opportunity was wasted, they would have won the game and could have aspired to this

Manchester United are coming from a week where they only scored one goal in two games, against Omonia at Old Trafford they were able to score in the last minute of the Europa League game, and now against Newcastle there was no way to remedy the attack that proved incapable of scoring, the team's creative players have not featured in recent games and in the Premier League they cannot be dropping key points.

The situation with the defence is encouraging, as in two games they were able to keep two clean sheets, and that is very important, but now they will face two very attacking teams, they have great strikers like Harry Kane or Richarlison. Or in the case of Chelsea with Aubameyang or the Englishman, Mason Mount. We will have to put a lot of effort into defending, the team is in good shape with Raphael Varane back.

Cristiano was angry to come off at 71 minutes, the only substitution

Manchester United needed an attacking presence to get the win in today's game, they didn't have Marcus Rashford until Erik ten Hag brought him on, it was an attacking change, the problem the fans are complaining about is that the one chosen to come off the pitch was Cristiano Ronaldo, bad news for the fans who wanted their team to finish the game with both strikers.
