Arturo Vidal has slammed Erik ten Hag and claims the Manchester United manager \u2018made a mess\u2019 by deciding to axe Cristiano Ronaldo.<\/p>\n

Manchester United news, exclusives and analysis<\/p>\n

Ten Hag has come under fire after United\u2019s poor start to the new season, although he relieved some of the pressure by guiding his side to a 1-0 win over Burnley on Saturday evening.<\/p>\n

Ronaldo, meanwhile, had his contract terminated by United last November after he gave an interview to Piers Morgan in which he slammed the club\u2019s hierarchy and Ten Hag\u2019s management.<\/p>\n

The 38-year-old scored 24 goals in his first season back at United and Vidal claims Ten Hag made a huge error by forcing the Portugal international out of Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

\u2018The worst thing is that they applauded Ten Hag when he took out Cristiano,\u2019 Vidal said during his recent Twitch stream.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u2018No, that coach came in badly. How are you going to get Cristiano Ronaldo out? That\u2019s how these idiots are, suddenly that\u2019s why the coaches arrive and can make a mess. Terrible.<\/p>\n

\u2018I don\u2019t know how they think, but take Cristiano out? Cristiano was the scorer and they take him out.\u2019<\/p>\n

Vidal then added, \u2018bald people are very complicated\u2019, which has been perceived as a dig at Jorge Sampaoli, who was his manager during his time at Flamengo.<\/p>\n

The midfielder, who now plays for Athletico Paranaense, had his contract cancelled with Flamengo earlier this year.<\/p>\n

\u2018I got stuck with a loser coach who did not know how to appreciate his players,\u2019 Vidal said of Sampaoli after his Flamengo exit in July.<\/p>\n
