In a podcast conversation with Rio Ferdinand, C. Ronaldo spoke up about his old team Man Utd. In particular, this striker attracted attention when criticizing coach Ten Hag.
During his second spell at Man Utd, C. Ronaldo did not have a good relationship with coach Ten Hag. In the end, this player had to leave Old Trafford “without fanfare” after the 2022 World Cup .

Therefore, the Portuguese superstar does not have a good relationship with coach Ten Hag. When asked about the current situation of Man Utd, CR7 did not hesitate to declare: “As I said before, Man Utd of coach Ten Hag needs to be reformed in all aspects.
Coach Ten Hag cannot talk about competing for the Premier League or Champions League titles because it is beyond the team’s capabilities.
The Dutchman’s constant talk of big targets is only going to dampen Man Utd’s morale, not help them. Granted, his mind tells him that Man Utd have the potential to win the title, but does saying it outright help?
Instead of giving up from the start, why didn’t he say we need to fight with all our might? It would be better if coach Ten Hag asked the whole team to try together, instead of talking about far-fetched things.”
In the summer transfer window, coach Ten Hag brought in assistant Ruud van Nistelrooy. C. Ronaldo believes this is the right move for Man Utd.

The Portuguese superstar added: “If coach Ten Hag listens to Van Nistelrooy’s advice, it will be very beneficial. He is a former Man Utd player so he knows the team very well. Man Utd needs advice from people who have been with the club for a long time. For example, you (Rio Ferdinand), Roy Keane, Paul Scholes, Gary Neville, anyone or even Sir Alex Ferguson.
You can’t build a great club without knowledge. People who work in the office can’t help. People who know the team, they have been in the dressing room. They know how to deal with the players and understand what they need. I believe Ruud will bring a lot to Man Utd. If the manager listens to people like that, the team will improve.”
After the national team training session, Man Utd will start playing again in the Premier League. In round 4, they will visit Southampton.
