[Piers Uncensored] Cristiano Ronaldo tells Piers Morgan he feels like he's being forced out of Manchester United in an explosive interview.

There are consequences to his actions tho

What consequences? Whatever will happen next is going to be what he wanted or wished for.

People who are actually invested in football, who follow up on it on a regular basis, who invest their time and effort into it, who support it or any of the above have a more valid opinion on football

So let me quote a wise man: "a grain of sand"? Also, those people who are invested in football are also biased, most people hate Ronaldo for being arrogant, etc, which then make them take anything he said more harsh than if it were someone else. Also, will make those people believe any rumours about Ronaldo that makes him look bad, because why not.

And thinking that not giving a fuck about the vast majority of the people's opinion that truly matter

lol, your opinion doesn't mean anything to Ronaldo

I completely agree. And that's exactly why he's never gonna be going down in the history books as the GOAT.

Says who? You? Or Messi fans? What he does outside of the pitch won't have an affect on what he's won and done in his carrer, for me he's the GOAT, for you he doesn't even before the recent events.

Ronaldo has been piss poor for his club and country this last season.

So? Messi was shit last season and even had a big role in PSG getting eliminated vs Real, anyone cares? No, it was a bad season. Ronaldo is shit this season because he doesn't play under a manager that suits him, and I can't remember anything regarding the national team, but I guess it isn't that bad as in United.

or the dynamics of people's thoughts and feelings then i don't know what to tell you.

And again, we don't know the entire picture, I believe that when Ten Hag arrived, he's got fucked and didn't feel like he can play under him, yes he signed a contract and should play under any manager, but just like I would not work in a toxic work enviroment under a toxic boss (for example, it all depends on how you feel), then I'll make problems to get out.

So i take it you're a Bayern fan? Or did you just contradict yourself?

haha.

Essentially saying "Fuck everyone's opinion, i'm the best and United is just a mere club with inferior players".

Who's opinions? Everyone entitles to have their thoughts, as bad as they be, and to be honest United are pretty shit since he left them like 13 years ago, he says what he thinks, would you want him to lie? It's just words, and if people know (those who know football, like you) he's narcissits and w/e, then you can just igonre what he says. But you know he has a point.

But if you think this isn't gonna ding his career, his legacy and his chances at playing football at the top level, you're badly mistaken.

His career is nearing his end anyway, he's close to 38 now.

"His legacy"? I don't think so, some United fans will hate him or appreciate him less, but not much more than that.
