Lee Sharpe has claimed Cristiano Ronaldo should take a leaf out of Ian Rush's book from when the legendary Welsh striker was at Leeds United. Ronaldo has caused huge controversy this week following an interview with Piers Morgan, where he blasted Manchester United, Erik Ten Hag and several of his former teammates.
The Portugal international has had to settle for a more reduced role at Old Trafford this season amid struggles to reach his best form. He has started just four Premier League games and has not been afraid to show his discontent, walking out of the stadium early in Man United's 2-0 win over Tottenham last month after Ten Hag decided against bringing him off the bench.
At 37, Ronaldo is now at the same age as Rush was at Leeds, who he scored just three goals for in 39 matches. In an interview with OLBG the Liverpool legend's former Leeds teammate Sharpe told a strange story of when Rush was forced to play at wing-back during his time at Elland Road, stating that he just 'got on with it'. He believes Ronaldo should do the same.
