Manchester United hero Wayne Rooney has provided a sound response to Cristiano Ronaldo’s ambiguous Instagram comment following the Derby boss’ criticism of his Old Trafford return.
Appearing as a guest on Sky Sports’ Monday Night Football, Rooney said he believed the Portugal captain’s homecoming hasn’t quite worked out. "You'd have to say, no (it hasn't worked), at the minute," he said. "He's scored goals, important goals in the Champions League earlier on in the season, he scored the hat-trick against Tottenham.
"But I think if you're looking at the future of the club, you have to go with younger, hungry players to lift Manchester United over the next two or three years. Obviously, Cristiano is getting on a bit and he's obviously not the player he was when he was in his 20s.”
