There was a discussion about how five-time world's best player Ronaldo will fit into Rangnick's tactical plans at "Old Trafford" stadium, especially when the German can introduce a high-paced style of play. Interim "Red Devils" coach M. Carrick was asked at a press conference about Ronaldo's reluctance to press opponents. "Maybe that's a myth," Carrick said. "Over the years, he has played for enough teams and he performed well playing in different styles." "He constantly scored goals in every team he played for, and I am sure he will continue to score goals - I have no doubt about it." "Players adapt anyway. You have to have skills in different styles of play. Ralf has a great style of play developed over a long time. I am sure that players are eagerly awaiting the coming days and weeks." Carrick himself "added fuel to the fire" in discussions about Ronaldo when he placed the 36-year-old footballer on the bench, and then used pressing tactics in Sunday's match against "Chelsea." Considering the Portuguese player's reputation and achievements, it was certainly a bold decision, but Carrick says the player reacted like a true professional. "It seems like a tough decision, but between us, personally, it wasn't. His reaction was really perfect." "In the dressing room, he was incredible, supporting the players. After the first half, I went to talk to the team, and he sat for 10 minutes and was ready to come out in the second half." "People try to squeeze something negative out of it, but in reality everything is different."
M. Carrick believes that C. Ronaldo will easily adapt to R. Rangnick's playing style
