With Cristiano Ronaldo having a horrible season with Manchester United, the Portugal captain has been receiving loads of criticism recently. Even the attacker’s former teammate Wayne Rooney joined the bandwagon and urged him to get his head down and work.
Talking on TalkSport, Ronney mentioned, “For Cristiano, simply get your head down and work and be able to play when the supervisor wants you. If he does that, he might be an asset. If he would not, it’s going to develop into an undesirable distraction.”

“Him and Messi are arguably the 2 greatest gamers of all time and you’ll go both approach with that, no matter approach you resolve. However I simply suppose the issues he has accomplished from the beginning of the season, just isn’t acceptable for Manchester United”, the previous England worldwide added.
Ronaldo even lashed out at former United captain Roy Keane, for coming to Ronaldo’s defence. “I’ve seen Roy Keane defending him. Roy would not settle for that. Roy would not settle for that in any respect. It’s a distraction which Manchester United do not want on the minute, when they’re making an attempt to rebuild”, he mentioned.
United are at present fifth within the Premier League standings with 23 factors (seven wins, two attracts and 4 defeats). Lastly, giving his verdict on Erik Ten Hag’s tenure as United supervisor, Rooney mentioned, “I believe Ten Hag has accomplished rather well. He is are available and stamped his authority on the crew, and for the primary time in about two or three years I am beginning to see an identification with Manchester United which I have not seen within the final two or three years. He is the proper man for the job. I believe it’s going to take time however it’s an actual step in the proper path to complete in that high 4 and get Champions League soccer once more.”
