Ronaldo is unloading on Man Utd when talking to Piers Morgan.

So Ronaldo’s talking himself out of playing for the club ever again?

His lack of brain cells is starting to show....everyone knows he wants out, but not sure this will acomplish anything.

MU wont release him with nothing in return and no decent club will pick him up. He now gets punished and they even save wages.
His brand will also lose a ton more after this stunt. Also his advisors are either fuming or sleeping...nobody is above the club.

Starting to question if even Sporting picks him up now.

Just hope our NT coach has the guts to stick him on the bench in WC and leave him there.

Wow this is a new low! Taking a snipe at Rooney is just poor taste. Never been a great fan of Ronaldo, but what is most depressing is how conceited and selfish modern day players are. Ronaldo is just one bad apple out of many more in the barrel (a certain rising star in PSG comes to mind).

because de gea isn't even their best goalkeeper anymore.
unai simon has been enrique's starting gk for the past couple of years now, while raya + sanchez have been excellent for brentford and brighton respectively. they all play the way that enrique wants.

actually i think the timing of this interview has been perfectly planned from ronaldos perspective.
it came after the last game before the world cup, presumably to not distract the team and hurt morale. then after the world cup theres only a couple of weeks before the transfer window opens, and this interview will have sat in everyones minds enough to know that ronaldo is now available to get the move he wants. hes forcing the club to sell/release him because contrary to what he says, the club did in fact not want to sell him last window. the club will probably agree to listen to cheaper offers now just to get ronaldo out.

yeah raya and sanchez arent better than de gea.
spain doesnt have de gea, ramos, thiago and nacho, just to name a few big names that should be in the team. like haitike said, enrique has very questionable selection choices. compared to what spain normally produces, spains line up this year is lacking in experience and quality and i would not be surprised if they failed to get out of groups. japan isnt the worst team and have my vote as the dark horse of that group

Tbh the worst part about this is he's putting Piers Morgan on the map.

it might not be the worst thing from a united fan's perspective. piers morgan does a good job of bringing attention to himself and if even ronaldo is out openly criticising the club for lack of progress or change, then maybe this works in favour of the fans. overall this whole thing reeks of unprofessionalism and such but at least we get some more insight into how poor the club is actually run in the inside.

Does this kind of public feud give any grounds for team to discipline the player with suspension or fine or something? I don't think I've seen it happen, but it's not too often players make it this direct and public either.

The thing is....who is going to bid? This summer portuguese media was filled with pretty much every respectable club saying no to Ronaldo. And in the summer he still had the "scores a lot of goals" label. Does he still have it now?

Lower bids acceptable by utd yes, leave on a free doubt it and even then, where would he go?

The best part is the memes that will flow from this drama. Lukaku's Inter Milan gambit was last season's highlight. I'm sure Ronaldo will top that.

well if transfer fees and wages are considered to be less of a concern than last window, surely someone would be interested. also have to factor in that current season performance may sway the minds of people, for example if a particular team isnt doing as well as they hoped. say what you want about ronaldo, but its too early to count him out when it comes to goals and clutch moments.

Thanks to Ronaldo for delivering another argument to only be a little less of a shit show than Neymar. Imagine having so little self-knowledge, just to burn all bridges and not even look in the mirror. You are 37 years old, spoiled crybaby

It’s not premature to count him out, depending on what his goals are.

If his goal is to be a clutch deciding player for an elite CL level team, I mean that seems beyond his grasp.

If he can handle being a hero for a team with slightly lower ambitions, absolutely I can see him doing something.

On the evidence of this latest interview, his ego will absolutely not countenance that.
