Wayne Rooney, a former teammate of Cristiano Ronaldo during their time together at United, gave his opinion on his performance in Erik ten Hag’s team!
After his playing career, the legend of English football moved into coaching. He did not become overly famous.
Nevertheless, he is still attractive to the English media as an interlocutor, which he was this time as well.
As a former United player, he was asked what he thought of the relationship between Ten Hag and Ronaldo.
“The coach obviously wants to go in a different direction in terms of how he wants United to play, and so far he has been relatively successful,” said Rooney, then added.
-Cristino and Messi are two of the best players of all time, but time catches up with us all at some point. It is clear that Cristiano is no longer the player he was at 22 or 23, for example. I believe it is difficult for him. Knowing him, it is difficult for him to sit on the bench and watch the game from the sidelines. I believe that if he remains patient enough, his chance will come again. That’s the only way he can fight to return to the starting line-up, concluded the former United ace.
Let’s remember that Ronaldo was the target of many clubs during the summer, but many giants refused because of his age, and he stayed at Old Trafford.
