In the Premier League Manchester United 3-1 Brentford match, in the 71st minute, Ronaldo was replaced by Maguire, and after the game, he read words + Nu threw his coat. But head coach Lonnick communicated with C Ronaldo for the first time, solved the problem, and the high emotional intelligence was revealed, which was a perfect solution to the problem.
Longnick said after the game that he anticipated Ronaldo's reaction after being replaced: "I guessed that Ronaldo would not hug me after being replaced, and I know what these attackers think. I don't have any problems with Cristiano Ronaldo. ”
"The only reaction I noticed was that he asked me: 'Why me?' Why replace me? I said: 'For the good of the team, I have to make a decision.' ’”
"I told him we were 2-0 at the time and had to learn the lesson of 2-2 away draws with Villa. I was angry with myself after that game because I didn't change to five in time. Today is the same thing again, and I don't want to make the same mistakes again. So I decided to replace Harry Maguire and Rashford, and I think it was the right decision. ”
"But Cristiano Ronaldo is not very happy, I mean, he is a goalscorer, he wants to stay on the field, he wants to score goals himself. But it's more important for us to shrink the formation to defend their set-pieces. ”
'When we scored the third goal, I said to him: 'Listen to Ronaldo, I understand your ambitions, you want to score goals yourself, but maybe in a few years, when you become the manager yourself, you will understand that when you face the situation I am in today, you may make the same decision.'" ”
"Listen, C Ronaldo, you're 36 now and in good shape. But only when you're a manager can you see things from the perspective of a manager. My job is to make decisions that maximize the interests of the team and the club. I hope he can see things from that perspective as well. ”
