Ex-Liverpool star and Juventus coach attack Cristiano Ronaldo
Manchester United star, Portuguese international Cristiano Ronaldo, has been subjected to severe criticism over the past months, whether by his former club, Juventus, or by a number of media professionals and former players in England.
During the past two days, the British newspaper, "Daily Mail", reported a stinging and simultaneous attack on former Liverpool star Jimmy Carragher, as well as Juventus coach Massimo Allegri.
The two criticize Ronaldo as a "selfish player" who is only interested in his interest, and Carragher said that Man United made a big mistake when he allowed Ronaldo to return to the club again, demanding his departure, and said that he spoils the group and does not help the team.
He stressed that Ronaldo's goal and led his team to victory over Brighton in the English Premier League, after a period of fasting, does not mean anything, and that he insisted on his opinion that "Ronaldo is finished" and he could no longer provide the addition to United at the age of 37.
He said that, given that the player costs the club half a million pounds a week, the United management should think carefully about ending his contract this season.
On the other hand, Allegri said that "his team - Juventus - is now better, replacing the team that some were playing for their own interests without taking into account the collective play and the interest of the team as a whole."
He added, "Now we feel that we are a team that cares about each other, rather than some of them are only interested in themselves," in a clear hint that Ronaldo was a Juventus player for the past three years, during which he met during the first two years with Allegri as a coach, before the latter returned to his team the season. The current, according to Allegri, as well as previous accusations of the two stars of the team, Bonucci and Chiellini, was playing only for himself, and not caring about his colleagues.
The interesting thing is that Juventus, without Ronaldo this season, is fourth, 11 points behind leaders Milan, and Juve is in a bitter struggle to secure fourth place and preserve its chance to snatch a ticket to the Champions League next season.
