A disgraced Ronaldo speaks of respect, but no apologies have come

The Portuguese spent Manchester United’s match with Tottenham alone on the bench, but the men of coach Ten Haga have arguably scored one of their best performances. Ronaldo’s frustration was palpable when he left the pitch before the match was over. According to the Daily Mail, he refused to participate in the match as a substitute. For the next match against Chelsea, the champion CR7 is already missing from the line-up.

As I have always done throughout my career, I try to live and play with respect for my teammates, opponents and coaches. He hasn’t changed, “Ronaldo wrote on his Instagram.” I haven’t changed. I am the same person and professional that I have been for the past 20 years playing elite football, and respect has always played a very important role in my decision-making process, ”he continued.

According to many, this is a clue that he does not feel enough respect from the Dutch manager. He also talks about how he has always tried to set an example for young players. “Unfortunately, it’s not always possible and sometimes the power of the moment overwhelms you,” he said.

He says he feels he has to “keep working hard, support my teammates and be ready for anything in every game. Giving in to pressure is out of the question. ”In conclusion, he added that the team must remain united.

At the same time, the 37-year-old striker divides the team. There is talk of respect, while at the beginning of the year he criticized young teammates for not turning to him for advice, flown to Portugal before the Manchester derby (presumably absent from the squad due to a hip injury), knocked at 14 – the old fan’s phone got out of hand or he didn’t show up for pre-season training.

After his latest excess, there is more and more speculation that he will leave the club in January.
