Cristiano Ronaldo engaged in a struggle he cannot win at Manchester United; Report
Cristiano Ronaldo engaged in a struggle he cannot win at Manchester United according to Samuel Luckhurst Chief Manchester United writer.
According to a publication in Manchestereveningnews, Cristiano Ronaldo has misread the room as badly and his negativity has overshadowed the positivity of a Manchester United win he played no part in.
Ronaldo missed games against Aston Villa on Thursday night and in London due to illness (United won both).
He appeared to be in good health as he attacked his manager and the team while speaking with Piers Morgan.
It doesn’t matter when the interview was captured. As terrible as one of Ronaldo’s runs this season was the timing.
He cannot play again for United for six weeks and has left a storm that will not clear any time soon.
Supporters support Ten Hag rather than Ronaldo. At Craven Cottage or Stamford Bridge three weeks prior, where he was benched for refusing to come out in the victory over Tottenham, he was not serenaded.
One of the most moral and unquestionably the most encouraging groups of fans Ronaldo has ever seen in his decorated career are United’s real followers. He’s daring them to boo him even though they’ve never done so.
Ronaldo has since left an Old Trafford friendly he participated in early and skulked down the tunnel before full-time against Tottenham, having refused to come on. If there is betrayal, it is from the player.
To revolt once may be regarded as a misfortune, to do so twice looks like selfishness.
This was the long-gestated interview Ronaldo promised back on August 17.
He commented on a fawning Instagram page he would reveal the “truth” in two weeks. Ie. when the transfer window closed.
Only Ronaldo has been left marooned in Manchester. Mendes hawked Ronaldo across Europe but Chelsea, Bayern Munich, Atletico Madrid, Sporting Lisbon, Napoli, and AC Milan failed to offer an exit route.
According to the report, it was obvious back then Ronaldo would choose Morgan to conduct the interview and that is a misstep. Morgan is disliked by long-time United fans due to his Arsenal allegiance and partisan coverage as the editor of The Daily Mirror during the clubs’ rivalry in the late 90s and early 2000s.
