Holly molly, I think this drama should be end ASAP, I don't want to hear any drama again from Ronaldo and Manchester United. If Ten Hag and his teammates want him out, just go out since there's few clubs still want him although he need to cut his paycheck. Few weeks ago I remember there's a news where the relationship between Ten Hag and Ronaldo already fine, now I heard the opposite thing. If Ronaldo still stay at Manchester United, the drama wouldn't end.
It's good that after saying that, Ronaldo should be removed from the club. No matter how good a player he is, he can't build a team around himself.
The task of the coach is to seek balance and bring victories, if for this, a player like Ronaldo should sit on the bench, because there are better players, then you need to put him on the bench.
Ronaldo is a great player, but he won't replace 11 field players and he only undermines the credibility of the coach with interviews like this.
Nothing good will come out of it.
Ronaldo did have two choices, he could have behaved as a real team player for Manchester United, accepting to be sitting on the bench at times, or behave like a king, but then I suggest you better score two goals per game on average. The way this played out shed some negative light on his career overall. Nobody can take away his successes, his goals and trophies, but this is just not acceptable for someone playing a game where the is a huge number of teammates and staff involved. He is also going at ad hominem when he indirectly calls Rooney an ugly person.
The interview is 90 minutes long and I think the full version will be published on Nov. 16th.
The timing for the interview is also clever because he has nothing to lose anymore. If he becomes a shining star at the cup now, Manchester United is still in a complicated situation. He still wants to go to a club that gives him the chance to win the Champions League. I just can't convince myself of any idea concerning a club who might sign him unless he played an outstanding cup in Qatar because then signing him would also be a smart PR stunt.
His parody interview also is about how much he loves his fans. I don't know what anything he did at Manchester United has to do with loving his fans. He is egoistic.
Slapping a mobile phone out of the hands of a 14 year old fan doesn't come across as if he truly loved his fans. I think we often forget that when you are an alpha male, and you have done a lot of things in your life, which can be worth bragging about, it is possible for you to not handle the lows of your life, very well.
Cristiano Ronaldo is an icon. A hero to a lot of people. And honestly, I don’t think anyone can say anything about his ego because those men who are talking about Cristiano Ronaldo having a big ego, I am quite sure that most of the girlfriends of those people, girlfriends or wives, whatever you say, have much bigger egos compared to Cristiano Ronaldo, by just having a few hundred Instagram followers.
I know that Cristiano Ronaldo has not done anything to deserve the love of Manchester United fans currently, but I think people should understand that this is a phase he’s going through right now. And if people keep talking shit about him, he’s not going to play any better.
