(Reuters) - Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes welcomed new manager Erik Ten Hag's uncompromising attitude towards punctuality, saying the Premier League club had lacked discipline prior to the Dutchman's arrival.
Ten Hag was appointed manager of the Manchester club in April, replacing interim coach Ralf Rangnick, and Fernandes said he was pushing United's players to improve their timekeeping from the outset.
"Don't be late for the meetings. Don't be late for the meals. That's really important, because if everyone is on time and someone comes late, he should be punished. Fernandes added that he was not sure of his United and Portugal team mate Cristiano Ronaldo's future, which has become the subject of intense speculation in recent weeks.
"I don't know what Cristiano said to the club, to the manager, but we have to respect his space," Fernandes said.
