Rooney sends message to Ronaldo over lack of game time
Former Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney has urged ex-teammate Cristiano Ronaldo to remain patient at Old Trafford after a difficult start to the season.
Ronaldo has only started one Premier League match for Erik ten Hag 's side this term, with the 37-year-old being utilised as an impact substitute in the majority of his appearances. The Real Madrid legend has only scored one goal for United this season, which came from the spot in the Europa League win over FC Sheriff.

Ronaldo's former teammate Rooney has told the veteran forward to be patient and make the most of the opportunities that come his way, but admitted that the 37-year-old will be finding his lack of game time hard to deal with.
"The manager's obviously gone a different way in terms of how they're playing and been successful," Rooney, who is in charge of MLS side DC United, told reporters on Friday.

Antony details warning from teammates about Everton
Manchester United attacker Antony has revealed that his teammates have already warned him that the team's upcoming clash against Everton will be difficult.
Erik ten Hag 's men face off against the Toffees on Sunday night looking to bounce back from their Premier League defeat to rivals Manchester City last weekend. United, who avoided a shock loss to Omonia Nicosia in the Europa League in midweek after coming from behind to win, had won four successive top-flight games before the defeat at the Etihad.
United will be coming up against an Everton side who are unbeaten in their last seven matches in all competitions. The Toffees have been much-improved in recent weeks and secured victories over West Ham and Southampton. Antony said that his teammates have already spoken to him about the upcoming fixture, and insisted he knows how difficult it will be.
"We know it's going to be a difficult, tough game. My team-mates have already spoken to me about this fixture. They said it will be difficult. We have to impose our game, show our strength."
