Manchester United manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, has explained why he dropped Cristiano Ronaldo for the visit of Everton this afternoon.
The Norwegian has instead started with both Anthony Martial and Edinson Cavani against Rafa Benitez’s men.
This is the first time Ronaldo will be left out of the United team in the Premier League since he returned to the club this summer.
