Despite the recent ‘hat trick’ aimed at Tottenham, Cristiano Ronaldo continues to motivate critical voices in England. The latest was that of Paul Merson, with the former England international doubting CR7’s continuity at Old Trafford next season.
“I always said that signing Ronaldo didn’t seem like a good move. He scored the ‘hat trick’ against Tottenham and everyone went wild, but I would be shocked if he stayed at Manchester United next season. I believe that the next coach will not be so soft and things will not work out”, said Paul Merson, extending the analysis.
“You are not going to win the Premier League with a 37-year-old striker and for the club’s fans it should be worrying that Ronaldo is the best player and scorer of the season. Cristiano is 37 years old and we have to put things in perspective because Man. United want to win titles, they don’t want to make numbers and reach fourth place”, he concluded.
