In a recent interview, Manchester United forward Cristiano Ronaldo criticized the mentalities of some of his teammates. The Portugal skipper urged them to improve, claiming everyone needed to buckle up if the team were to win something big in the 2021-22 season.
Crooks, however, has been left offended by Ronaldo’s recent interview and has asked him to get his act together before publicly criticizing his teammates. The former Premier League star is irritated with Ronaldo’s behavior and thinks he isn’t doing his team any favors by throwing tantrums on the pitch.
Discussing Ronaldo’s interview, Crooks wrote for BBC Sport:
He added:
Finally, he asked Ronaldo to look beyond “looking good” and focus on helping Manchester United in difficult stretches.
He added:
Cristiano Ronaldo’s Manchester United are currently seventh in the Premier League. They return to Premier League action with a trip to Brentford on Wednesday night.

Cristiano Ronaldo-less Manchester United held to a 2-2 draw at Aston Villa
With Cristiano Ronaldo failing to feature due to a hip injury, Manchester United were held to a 2-2 draw by Aston Villa at Villa Park. Although the Red Devils squandered a 2-0 lead against Villa, their overall gameplay looked a lot more coherent. Bruno Fernandes was at his very best for the visitors, scoring two important goals on either side of half-time.
Jacob Ramsey and debutant Philippe Coutinho spoiled United’s party with two late goals, but there were surely some positive takeaways from the 2-2 stalemate. Whether Ralf Rangnick will heed the positives and have the courage to bench Ronaldo against Brentford is a million-dollar question at the moment.
