Patrice Evra has claimed that former Manchester United teammate Cristiano Ronaldo is an 'alien' and that people still misunderstand the veteran striker.
Ronaldo scored the 700th club goal of his career in United's 2-1 victory over Everton last Sunday, with the 37-year-old coming off the bench to notch the winner just before the half-time break. The Reds fell behind after Alex Iwobi put the home side in front, before Antony levelled proceedings with his third Premier League strike in as many games.
Despite enduring a difficult start to the season, Ronaldo has been praised by former teammate Evra, with the ex-defender suggesting that the 37-year-old's 'discipline' is admirable. The Frenchman also claimed that the veteran frontman is only disrespected by jealous people or Lionel Messi fans.
