Former Manchester City captain, Richard Dunne has told Manchester United forward, Cristiano Ronaldo what he must do to return to the club's starting XI this season.
With the 2023-24 English Premier League set to get underway tomorrow night and, in the weekend, Chelsea face Liverpool and Pochettino will be hoping to field a very strong XI to send a clear statement to their rivals this season.
But Toure came out with the best XI he has played with so far in his career. They are Ederson Moraes, Vincent Kompany, Rafael Marquez and Carles Puyol in defense.
Cristiano Ronaldo has been snubbed by his former boss at Real Madrid Carlo Ancelotti who has named his all time best XI players he has managed in his illustrious coaching career.

Interestingly, he has now cemented his legacies alongside Henry, as both stars walked their into the list of Premier League best XI of foreign imports.
Potential Starting XI Petrovic Gusto, Thiago, Chalobah and Chilwell. Caicedo, Enzo and Gallagher Sterling, Jackson and Palmer. Arsenal's XI Raya White, Saliba, Gabriel and Zinchenko Jorginho, Rice and Odegaard Martinelli, Havertz and Saka.
However, the manager emphasized that any returning players should have minimal impact on the starting XI, which sees David Raya in goal, supported by the solid defensive duo of William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes.
GK: Zećira Mušović (Sweden) Playing against the US, Mušović was the standout player of the entire round and perhaps the standout performance of the entire tournament to date, especially for a goalkeeper.
In the midfield, the much improved performance of Moises Caicedo in recent weeks positions him as a linchpin in marshaling the middle of the park on Sunday.
The Blues have been in excellent form since the start of their pre-season tour, winning 5-0 against Wrexham in their first game of the summer pre-season campaign last midweek and 4-3 against Brighton on Sunday.
The likes of Ronaldinho, Luis Suarez, Neymar, Dani Alves, Rafael Marquez, Rivaldo, Romario, and Sergio Busquets all miss out on the greatest Barcelona XI of all-time.
Below is Chelsea's starting XI against Man United: Formation: 4-4-3 Starting XI: Arrizabalaga; Azpilicueta, Christensen, Luiz, Palmieri; Jorginho, Barkley, Loftus-Cheek; Pedro, Hazard, Higuain. The kick-off time for the match is 4:30pm.
