Cristiano Ronaldo hits back at Man Utd criticism

[ad_1]

Cristiano Ronaldo has hit back at those who have criticized his pace of work at Manchester United, saying he is not concerned with those who do not want to see him continue to win trophies.

Ronaldo has been the target of criticism over his defensive effort, although goals continued to flow to Man Utd.

But the Portuguese star has hit back at those who criticize him, pointing out his age and past successes to say he knows what he’s doing.

What was said?

“I know when the team needs my help defensively,” said the forward. “But my role in the club is to win, to help the team win and to score goals – [the defensive side] is part of my job.

“People who don’t want to see this is because they don’t like me but to be honest I’m 36, I win it all so am I going to worry about people who speak badly of me ?

“I sleep well at night. I go to bed with my conscience very good. Keep it up because I’m going to shut my mouth again and win things.”

Ronaldo continued, “Criticism is part of business. I’m not worried about it. And I see it as a good thing, to be honest. If they worry about me or talk about me, it’s because they know my potential and value in football yet.

“So that’s good. I’ll give you an example: if you’re in a school and you’re the best student, you ask the worst student if he likes the best, they’ll say they don’t like him .

“I think the main word is I’m always happy and I love football. It doesn’t matter how many things I’ve won in my career. I win everything but I’m still motivated.

“I’m in a new chapter of my life, even with my age, and that’s why I’m here – to try to win, and I think Manchester has to be at this level of winning and thinking to win big things , therefore I am here to help. “

Ronaldo’s record so far

Ronaldo recently scored the game-winning goal in Man Utd’s Champions League win over Atalanta, a game which saw the Red Devils come back from 2-0 to stun the Italian side.

In total, Ronaldo has scored six goals in eight games for Man Utd this season, including three in three Champions League appearances.
