‘He deserves better treatment’ – Fans shocked with Cristiano Ronaldo’s scathing revelations about Manchester United
The second part of Cristiano Ronaldo’s explosive interview to TalkTV with Piers Morgan aired in the UK on Thursday. The Man Utd forward revealed he is unsure if he’ll remain at the club after the World Cup.
Cristiano Ronaldo has suggested his relationship with Erik ten Hag is broken after feeling “provoked” by the Manchester United manager to walk out during the game against Tottenham Hotspur.
Ronaldo said he felt disrespected by Ten Hag after the United boss claimed he would not subject the 37-year-old to a late substitute appearance against Manchester City but then brought him on for three minutes against Spurs, prompting the striker to leave early.
“You don’t put me on against Manchester City because of respect for my career and you want to put me on for three minutes against Tottenham?” said Ronaldo. “It doesn’t make sense. I think he did it on purpose. I felt provoked not only because of that game, but before,” Ronaldo said.
“He doesn’t respect the way I should deserve. But it is what it is. This is why probably, the game against Tottenham, I left. The coach didn’t have respect for me. So, this is why the relationship is the way it is. He keeps saying in the press that he came to me and he likes me blah, blah, blah but that it’s only for the press, 100%,” he added.
Ronaldo to retire after FIFA World Cup 2022?
Ronaldo also hinted about his possible retirement if Portugal wins the World Cup in Qatar. He further said that if it doesn’t happen, he is willing to play for another three years until he reaches 40.
He also lavished praise on Lionel Messi, his long-time rival, who is set to feature in his last World Cup with Argentina.
“Amazing player is magic, top. I have a great relationship with him. I’m not friend of him in terms of, what I mean by friend is the guy who was with you in your house, speaking on the phone, no, but it’s like a teammate. He’s a guy that I really respect the way he always speak about me. What am I going to say about Messi? A great guy who does great things for football,” added Ronaldo.

Just proves everything he said in the interview. You are really biased. This is the first time we get to see the player's side of the story when things are unfolding. More power to Ronaldo! @Cristiano

He deserves better treatment.

Ronaldo deserves to get respect and start every single game he wants to! It’s only right for what he has done in an 20 year career! If managers think he’s too old for the PL then they can find another club!
