Cristiano Ronaldo describes his time with Manchester United four months after leaving the club as “a bad phase of my career”.
“I went through a difficult phase,” Ronaldo acknowledges.
Ronaldo thoroughly investigated Erik Ten Hag, the management team, and the mindset of the majority of his teammates by mid-November. Nevertheless, at the news conference on Wednesday, the Portuguese superstar began discussing his personal role in his hasty departure.
In his opening statement during Portugal’s news conference prior to their European Championship qualifying match against Liechtenstein, Ronaldo said, “There is no room for regrets in this life.Even if we don’t perform well, it still affects us. It’s difficult to comprehend what’s below when we’re on the mountain’s apex, and frequently I didn’t notice it.”
“I really believe that everything occurs for a purpose. I am frequently appreciative of having to experience hardships because they allow me to identify my true allies. You can tell which person is on your side when times are tough. On a personal and professional level, it was not a pleasant time in my life or work. As I had never done this before, the learning process was crucial in helping me become better equipped. I’m a stronger person now, he continued.
On January 1, Ronaldo, 38, committed to Al-Nassr for 2.5 years. The attacker has nine goals in eight games played in the Saudi Pro League.
Fabio Silva: “Comparing with Ronaldo is unfair.”
At the age of 15, Fabio Silva was compared to Cristiano Ronaldo. A comparison that the twenty-year-old Eindhoven player claims is unfair to everyone.
“Cristiano is, in my opinion, the greatest football player in history. Although Messi is equally excellent, Ronaldo is unique. This particular player won’t return,” said Silva. “People have always criticised him, but his performances have always shown the opposite. His thinking is ridiculous.”
He was compared to Ronaldo following his million-dollar signing to Wolverhampton Wanderers. “Comparing young players to Cristiano is unfair. Not even for him. His accomplishments are unmatched in terms of numbers, records, and honours. I’m now very at ease about it because of this. I don’t care if people criticise me too since they criticise the greatest player of all time as well. Football can be quite chaotic at times,” he concluded.
