In this Ronaldo controversy, I stand well with Jose Mourinho!

He's point of view is that the coach invited Ronaldo, if he was not going to need Ronaldo, or use him effectively, he shouldn't have invited him. I am even saying that, before inviting Ronaldo, he should have been able to communicate him that he will be playing him for only 45mins, 30 mins or so, as the case may be.

You don't invite Ronaldo and begin to act drama. Ronaldo has done a lot for the Portugal team and should not be disrespected. We also know that Ronaldo is so ambitious and has 1000th carrer goals he is pursuing. So, he was supposed to have some playing time to score a few goals.

Of a truth, age is against Ronaldo but he is not that bad as he is projected to be... Portugal should have protected Ronaldo.

I think the coach used Ronaldo to get the Portuguese coaching job fully, I listened to the interview where the journalist was asking him some questions, it was clear he wanted to leave but the coach convinced him not to, he said they had a conversation which means he was made some kind of promises, these promises is not made clear to the public but from simple sense, he was promised game time. He was benched and to me that's not a problem, his old and cannot keep on playing full time in all the matches, every can understand this part, coach was right on this aspect. Ronaldo reportedly warmed up for 30 minutes and was not used, how do you tell a player like Ronaldo to warm up for that long and not use him. First disrespect from the coach, the second was on the press interview. There are people who have attained certain kinds of status in life and you cannot do this to them and they will sit with it.

Well, I don't know what Jose Mourinho has said about the ongoing issues with the Portuguese national team and Cristaino Ronaldo, but I don't need anyone to tell me that it was a clear disrespect towards Cristaino Ronaldo.

Nobody gave a flying fvck about this Portuguese national team until Cristaino Ronaldo came in. Jorge Jesus said something else to him behind close doors and chose to do something else entirely. The moral lesson is that, humans are purely ungrateful, a champion and hero like Cristaino Ronaldo shouldn't have been treated that way.

Did you all observe Bruno Fernandes and Vitinha last night? They couldn't show class during the FIFA World Cup Competition, but they all of a sudden turned iconic last night. You could see the hate and dislike they have towards Cristaino Ronaldo.

This is where some coaches makes mistakes,  they at times believe they have the final say because they are the head of the team without knowing there are some mistakes you see and consider it common without knowing the gravity of such mistakes. At first he was the same person that invited Ronaldo into the team maybe just to humiliate and make mockery of him when he knows the amount of energy Ronaldo has invested just to transform the Portuguese team. On this the coach needs to rethink and maybe find how to handle this situation because Ronaldo is not just  player one can joke with

Everyone is just talking as if such thing doesn't happen in football where a player can be told to warm up but the coach ends up not giving them any playing time. We are all being sentimental in this case, and it shows that a lot of people are not emotionally intelligent. The match was still ongoing and the tempo was high which implies that there was no need of bringing in Ronaldo at that time.

Saying that Jorge Jesus used Ronaldo to get a permanent job is very ridiculous because Jorge Jesus was not even under any pressure. If someone meant that he wants to retire, is that supposed to be a personal decision or it will require a public opinion before they will consider it. Ronaldo's statement lacks credibility, that's just it.

If the club is to address anything in Manchester united, they need defense. Look at Luke shaw, that guy is 31 years, he is prone to injury. They shouldn't rely on such kind of left back. Look at Dalot too, I'm not seeing their engagement in the team. The team also need more wingers, I don't think Rashford is a kind of player anyone would depend on for now, he is not playing to the club expectations.

Manchester United really need an overhaul of their team, you already mentioned a out their defense,  especially the left and right back. They also can't rely on Rashford as you have mentioned,  but I think they need more than that. Their midfield is very average and they also have a lot of average players in the team. If they really want to start competing again, they need to get the team fixed, by bringing in good players that can uplift the team.

How can we tell if a player is an average player or not, most of the players brought to Manchester United past and present where considered over average players but when introduced they turn below average players.  I think for now the problem of Manchester United has gone above expectation and needs proper scrutiny before concluding on the cause of their problems. Just in the last concluded transfer window,  Telis and Carlos where rated above average players for both Aston Villa and Brighton but after been introduced with hope of changes, all is still the same, though Carlos is yet to be introduced because of injuries but who knows how his performance would be if introduced.

Their rightback is manageable, maybe the could sell either of Dalot or Mazraoui then replace the one they choose to sell with an upgrade but their priority should be leftback and the central defense, Maguire and Martinez are due to leave they're becoming too slow and be relied on to compete against Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool.
 Yeah they still need a winger, but it's a backup striker is more important than that currently although they would've still loaned Rashford then use Cunha and Dorgu or any of the quality use player as right winger. Ineos really messed up in this summer window but i hope they’ll try amend it buy January.

It could be a good moment for Cristiano to end his professional career but looking at what he wants to achieve as a final treat for 1000 goals before retiring completely from football it looks like he will still continue to play at least until the end of the season.

Cristiano has scored 979 goals in all competitions and just 21 more for him to achieve his ambitions.
He is too old but his ambition is still very much felt so for this tournament in the Nations League and his season in the SPL it is likely that this will be the last season if the target is achieved but we do not know if until the end of the season 21 goals have not been realized because it could be that he will continue to be ambitious given the character that Cristiano has.

I criticize Ronaldo for the way he is behaving with the Portuguese national team, because he should have retired from the international career after the World Cup, but retiring completely from football now it wouldn't make any sense: as you pointed out he is only 21 goals away from an achievement that is going to last for a long time, and anyway he would be the first in the history of football, so I'm sure he'll keep playing until he reaches the 1,000 goals.

We know Cristiano's ego and ambition will never change when he wants to achieve his goals so with the situation that is happening now even though we are quite sorry for his behavior in the Portugal national team that should have been over but we also can not do much just need to give him respect.

Currently 21 goals can still be achieved until the end of the season (this possibility is still great) so for now he will definitely continue to force himself to be on the field even though there are many pros and cons about it.
For 1000 goals he will be the second because right now it is Pele who is still the first for 1000 more goals in his professional career although I do not know how he did it first

I agree that Ronaldo must be respected but let me you ask this: does Ronaldo respect his teammates and his coach? Because, in my opinion, he doesn't. What he did a few days ago has no excuses. In situations like this the priority is the team, never the single player. But, as I explained, he thinks he's above everybody else, therefore he doesn't care about the consequences of his actions.
And I'm sure he is extremely pissed off that without him Portugal managed to win two very difficult matches away.
