Fans criticize Manchester United’s direction and regard for Ten Hag despite Ronaldo’s “right on” assessment

Fans on social media have voiced their agreement with Cristiano Ronaldo after his criticism of the running of his club, Manchester United.

In an interview, the Portuguese forward claimed nothing has literally changed since the exit of Sir Alex Ferguson in 2013.

The former Real Madrid player also wondered why the club sacked Ole Gunnar Solkjaer and hired Ralf Rangnick.

The Ballon d’Or winner said the fans should know the truth about what is going on at Old Trafford that is preventing the club from being at the top with Manchester City, Liverpool, and even Arsenal.

Many fans criticised Ronaldo for confirming that he doesn’t respect Red Devils manager Erik ten Hag.

  Spot on

  I will say one thing about that Cristiano interview. He’s spot on about his opinion of Manchester United.

  They literally have no vision. The owners will always prioritise short-term public relations cover-ups rather than long-term investments. And what he said about the equipment. If it’s true, we’re worse off than we thought. – @forkandknife247

    Jealous Ronaldo

    Ronaldo thinks everyone is jealous of him. Guys hung their boots at the right time. He’s here, betraying his fans. –  @MAWDO21

      Where is the logic?

      Rooney and Ronaldo are both legends. But when Wayne Rooney slanders Ronaldo, it is okay? But when Ronaldo does the same, it is a problem? Where is the logic? – @sarcasticnerd0

        Crying

        Ronaldo went from a legend at Manchester United to a crybaby! That interview was unnecessary! Erik Ten Hag should just release him from his misery and terminate his contract! -@UTDDanee_

          Love Ronaldo’s openness

          The media against Ronaldo was much this year, especially during the transfer period.

          Fine no player of his caliber will want to play [in the] Europa [League], but why will the coach say he’s part of his plan and yet he’s been left out.

          Love the way he poured out his mind. –  @Ola_Bode20

            Timing of the interview

            If Ronaldo had balls, he’d have dropped that interview weeks into the season and not on the last day before club football takes a break, knowing very well he won’t return to Manchester.

            He is just a coward who couldn’t deal with Ten Hag man to man. Good riddance, you delusional man-child. – @fernandes_hater

              Refreshing fall out

              United fans overhyped and overrated what Ronaldo did for their club, and called him a Premier League legend ahead of so many names like Rooney and others. This fallout is so refreshing. – @Cityzen_fcb

                Ronaldo disrespected

                Whether you like it or not, Ronaldo has been disrespected big time. Even in his first season, Wayne Rooney was always there to criticize him.

                He was our best player. We forget so soon how his goals helped us in the EPL and the UCL. Ronaldo is more United than ETH. – @Big_Dadu

                  Ronaldo the GOAT

                  Ronaldo’s villain arc will bring him so much hate, my respect increased for him for not staying quiet about that corrupted club. No matter what, he is the GOAT. – @JahShagsYou
