Cristiano Ronaldo is not to blame for the troubles of Manchester United at this time, according to Rio Ferdinand.

 

What did Rio say about Cristiano Ronaldo?

The Portuguese footballer suffered a setback at the Red Devils in his first season back as the club failed to give the star the ground he deserves, says the ex-teammate. Ronaldo was third on the PL goalscoring charts on his return to English football, but was unable to break through the fruitless Man Utd streak as he limped to the Europa League finish. It’s not the striker’s fault according to a former teammate who says Man Utd should have delivered the lineup around him.

Rio Ferdinand said that on a personal level, he does what Cristiano Ronaldo does, he scores goals, he wins games and without Cristiano they are not knocked out of the Champions League. Ronaldo scored the winning goals several times and he kept his side in the deal. Ferdinand thinks the club has obviously not played their part in terms of giving him a platform to succeed. According to Rio Ferdinand, it just shows them that great players, those who talk like the best players ever – and Cristiano Ronaldo is one of them – they can’t do it alone, they need teammates to help. and it shows it.

 

Ten Hag must create something from scratch

Rio said any impact between the pair would take weeks, possibly months, to settle, adding that they would have to wait and see. This is something they need to wait for and give it time. Ferdinand says that Cristiano said that this new manager needs to be given time and he needs to be given that given the resources, given the patience, try to create something. According to Rio, Ten Hag has to create something almost from scratch.
