Roy Keane casts doubt on Ralf Rangnick’s Ronaldo injury claims

Roy Keane has questioned the credibility of Ralf Rangnick’s claim that Cristiano Ronaldo has been ruled out for the rest of the season.

Prior to the game, Keane said that he couldn’t understand how Cristiano Ronaldo could be picking up minor injuries, given his long history of injuries.

Anthony Elanga, Bruno Fernandes, Paul Pogba, and Jadon Sancho make up Rangnick’s front four.

Manchester United are now down 2-1, but they’ve shown a marked improvement over their performance in the reverse fixture, with Sancho hitting a brilliant goal to level the scores at one point.

🗣 "We talk about Ronaldo being a machine, very rarely injured then every now and again he comes out with "hip flexor" it doesn't add up to me."
