As more of Cristiano Ronaldo’s interview with TalkTV becomes public, he has aimed aim at his former Manchester United teammate Gary Neville.
During their six years at Man Utd, Ronaldo and Neville were inseparable. Since Ronaldo’s return to Old Trafford last season, though, Neville has been a vocal Ronaldo critic.
Though he and Neville are “not friends,” the Portugal star called Neville’s “continuous criticism” of him “disappointing.”
Everyone is entitled to their view, but they have no idea what goes on behind the scenes at the training facility or in my personal life.
That’s why it’skids must hear important important importantimportant that kids hear my perspectivothersas well as others’.
It’s simple to be critical if you don’t have all the facts.
In a recent incident caught on camera by Sky Sports, Ronaldo completely ignored Neville as they stood on the sidelines before a game.
For the ‘Our World Cup‘ series, Harry Symeou welcomes Scott Saunders, Grizz Khan, and Jack Gallagher to reflect on France ’98. Come along with us as we revisit the past.
Despite his apparent understanding of the time commitment required for Neville’s TV gig, he has accused his former Manchester United teammate and others of “taking advantage” of his fame.
Ronaldo said this about television critics: “They have a career where they must criticize in order to be more renowned.” I’m at a loss for words.
I don’t believe they’re foolish when they utilize to their advantage. Still, it hurts to hear criticism from those who shared the locker room with you.
“The criticism won’t keep me up at night, but it’s not pleasant to hear.”
