Cristiano Ronaldo has left Portugal's training camp after being an unused substitute vs Norway… what are your thoughts on this? 😬

dancoombs3d ago

I love Ronaldo but I can’t defend him here

amirmir3d ago

To be fair, Luka Modric is 40 and still playing. Yet there isn't a pile on for him to retire.

chillout3d ago

Probably because there aren’t many other players who could rightfully demand his slot.

james.brooke3d ago

There should be. Blocking a generation of midfielders coming through and getting their chance for what? One of the most overrated players there has ever been

What's betting it was cos coach informed Ron that he would not start...

immanuelmojomojo3d ago

It's such a sad story. Instead of leaving on a high, he's humiliated due to his bloated ego. He should have call it when the ovation was high.

dancoombs3d ago

I think Portugal would have had a much better chance at the World Cup without the Ronaldo distraction

chillout3d ago

Most of us stay on too long - in whatever we do.

41 years old 😂what is he doing? You telling me a 41 year old can’t accept being rested? He started against Wales last week!

tom.procter3d ago

To quote Roy Keane… BABY

brook0103d ago

He’s been watching too many Netflix drama TikTok’s 🙄 so whiney

chillout3d ago

I really don’t understand why everyone piles on Ronaldo. Sure, he didn’t always help himself - but you have to respect the way he always pushes himself and his utter self belief. One of the greatest players ever to have graced the game.

james.brooke3d ago

Probably because he’s 41 and still demanding to play every match. Portugal are not Al Nassr, they are a good side with top players. He has had his time and shouldn’t be anywhere near the squad if he insists on not retiring

kierandoody3d ago

I’m an England fan of a certain age. I think he’s and absolute winker 😉

markmarston3d ago

People will say he’s not good enough anymore, but let’s have the debate then. Name be a better Portuguese stirker than Cristiano Ronaldo right now?

eoin3d ago

Goncalo Ramos

kierandoody3d ago

Will do another Piers Morgan interview that gives absolutely no extra insight. Absolute child basically saying “its my ball and the other kids aren’t letting him play with it.” Hes had everything his own way and rightly so but hes 41 now and needs to accept his time has been and gone. Giving only child vibes.

jordan.harris3d ago

Cannot stand him! Glad to see he’s only ruining his legacy now. Pathetic

freddie3d ago

Crying again? Who is surprised? He’s too old for this now, he’s not the player he thinks he is!!!
