He is probably telling the truth, so not sure what the big issue is.

The club have been a complete mess since Ferguson left. Who cares if player comes out and says it. Maybe it will be the catalyst for some positve changes.

This is also good for the club, no more pressure to pay him, and hopefully he goes.

We knew he was insufferably egotistical when he was turning into a world class player for us all those years ago. We knew he didn't, ultimately, feel a profound connection to our club when he saw himself as a 'slave' and used us as a prop in his Madrid contract negotiations. We knew he wouldn't be a transformative player (in any good sense) when he returned in 2021 and that there was a danger that without being a player who could take us to the next level, we'd just be left with the jerk. I think this interview effectively completes the arc.

He's surrounded himself with a bunch of Piers Morgans. I wish that was cockney rhyming slang but Piers Morgan in itself is as low as it gets. Completely unhinged. He genuinely needs help.

He's a winner. He says and does what he wants. He doesn't need anyone's permission. That's what true winners do. Someone tells him no then he ignores it. Attitude of champions

He's not telling the truth. He's telling HIS truth, which is absolutely mental.

I can’t understand why he’s gone down this route, not as if he has a “dream move” in the offing like last time

Just looks a prat

Totally ridiculous I agree.

The reaction to this interview (or what we've seen) has been very anti Ronaldo so far. He's not read the room at all. Fans think he's been crap because it's the truth.

He thinks he can go wherever he wishes and be the missing link for that team. That's what he's being told

Some of them are about to do a complete 180 when they themselves have voiced what he has come out with.

This is hilarious

Most of it.

The manager stuff is mental. Erik wants him out because he's finished and we can't play the way he wants to with him in the side.

He's just not handling becoming a very poor player very well. The past is the past. A wonderful player who is now not even as good as Martial and Rashford.

Time to retire.

Another thing: Murtough and ETH seem to be addressing the lack of investment in facilities and the wider dysfunctional decision making that reigned under Woodward's direction. Ironically, bringing back Ronaldo was an example of the amateurism he seems to be moaning about.

The GOAT status just swung back in Messi's favour then?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

It never swung away from Messi for those that understand football.

It was ridiculous Ralf Ragnick coming into coach the club, so nothing wrong with saying that.

Imagine being dedicated your whole career to football, perfect diet and work in the gym for 20 years, then have someone who was finished at the top level at 29 like Rooney having pops at you in the media. I don't blame him for responding to Rooneys digs.
So again nothing wrong with that.

Ronaldo obvously feels disrespected by ETH, and probably lied to. Only they know who is int he right or wrong.

He obviously need to leave the club, and isn't a great player anymore. But he hasn't say anything outrageous.

No ones saying what he's said about the club investment is wrong though? It's the disrespect to everyone else, u really agree with what he's said about ralf? Rooney and eth then? Maybe u should follow him out the club then

Yes I agree with what he has said about Ralph and Rooeny. Ron has explained it perfectly above. Why on earth do you think a player that has reached Ronaldo status should sit down and just take criticisms from Rooney? He has answered back. Rich people problems I have better things to worry about.

It is reported Ralph told Tuchel not to buy him. Football is a small world and Ronaldo probably knows what Ralph said. He has said nothing regarding this matter.

The probably only thing I disagree with is his attack on the manager who is trying to get us back to winning ways and needs none of this.

I think you maybe watch too much TV drama and don't follow enough actual real life football. That's OK if you like made of essex or whatever, but you may be missing the point

Ralf was the most honest guy at the club in a decade, he said he hadn't heard of him which as someone who is a professional is ain disrespectful and just shows his arrogance

What has Rooney being burnt out at 29 gt to do with anything, we as fans have opinions yet one of our greatest players says something and he cries because he's mot as good? So only maybe Messi can talk bad about him then?

The eth I guess no one knows for sure but ronaldo certainly hasn't made a case on the pitch to play this year that's for sure

His comments re Rooney could be taken as banter, but he should not be talking about his club or manager the way he has.

We should telll him to pack his bags and sod off to Lisbon or London and be their problem.

Except from the bit where the manager has picked him nearly every single week and he's been utter utter crap.

3 goals since August, 2 of which came against a team from Moldova.

He just can't handle the fact he's finished. His brain still thinks he's world class but his legs know the truth.

And that’s going to win him his place back in the team is it?
