Manchester United forward Cristiano Ronaldo has been told his “oversized ego” is “polluting” the club’s dressing room after his latest temper tantrum prompted manager Erik ten Hag into action.
The 37-year-old forward refused to come off the bench during last week’s win over Tottenham before storming down the Old Trafford tunnel minutes before the end of the game.
Ten Hag dealt with the matter by temporarily suspending Ronaldo from the first-team fold and banning him from Saturday night’s clash with Chelsea.
The United boss has been praised by many for the calm and composed way he has handled the saga, but ex-Arsenal star Emmanuel Petit wasn’t quite as measured with his scathing assessment of Ronaldo on the Rothen S’enflamme show in France.
“He tires everyone: the supporters, his teammates… They don’t want him anymore in the locker room, he pollutes everyone so much,” the ex-Gunner claimed.
“He has an exceptional career, when he stops we will all be unanimous in saying it, but his behaviour is so individualistic. His message yesterday on social media. You know you don’t like what’s going on with your club, you can’t stand your coach Ten Hag anymore, you feel like you are disrespected for what you have done, but your status no longer exists!
“You are no longer the same player, you have been demoted, you have suffered a downgrade, but you do not accept it because your ego is so oversized. Say it real! It can’t be defensible.”
While many would agree with Petit’s criticisms, Ten Hag has already confirmed that Ronaldo would return to the first-team following the game at Stamford Bridge.
