Cristiano Ronaldo was interviewed by Morgan Pierce again after three years. It was because of his criticism of the club during the conversation that the Portuguese superstar left Old Trafford. This time, he said in the "Piers Morgan No Taboo" program recorded in his living room that he felt sad to see the current situation of Manchester United and hoped that his old club could recover.

During his career, Ronaldo played for Manchester United twice and won the Premier League, Champions League and Ballon d'Or for the first time. However, after returning to the Theater of Dreams, things did not develop as expected, and the two sides fell out and parted ways. After Ronaldo left the team in 2022, although Manchester United won the cup, their results in the Premier League and Champions League were dismal.

Despite the unpleasant way of leaving, the 40-year-old Ronaldo said that he still cares about Manchester United very much, but is still dissatisfied with the club's structure. Morgan asked: "Do you still pay attention to the results of Manchester United's games? Are you sad to see them perform poorly?"

C Ronaldo replied decisively: "Yes, of course! I feel sad for the club, which is one of the most important clubs in world football, and I still have feelings for Manchester United for obvious reasons. You have to use smart people, smart people, to lay the foundation for the future of Manchester United. Basis, just like it was many years ago."

C Ronaldo added: "Nicky Butt, Gary (Neville), Roy Keane and Beckham, they have become big-name players, and they are also very young. But now Manchester United, they lack a reasonable structure."

Regarding his criticism of Manchester United, Ronaldo said it was because of deep love and responsibility. "Because I was at Manchester United for so many years, I won the Champions League there, I won the Ballon d'Or, I won about 12, 13, 14 titles there. So I have to reiterate that Manchester United is still in my heart," he said. "I love the club, but we also have to face it. Reality, ask yourself. Listen, they are on the wrong path. So, Manchester United must change, and I believe this is not just a matter of the coach and the players."

Manchester United's current coach Ruben Amorim is the same age as Ronaldo, and the two were teammates in the Portuguese team. Ronaldo blessed Amorin, but also emphasized that the head coach cannot create miracles. "He has tried his best, what can you do?" Ronaldo explained, "Miracles? It is impossible to always hope for miracles. We have a saying in Portugal: Miracles only exist in Fatima. He alone cannot create miracles."

What Ronaldo said is Fatima, a city in Portugal. It is said that three shepherd boys witnessed the apparition of the Virgin Mary there and called for world peace. On May 13, 1917, it was said that tens of thousands of people gathered there. It was raining heavily, but suddenly the sky cleared, and the ground and people's clothes dried instantly. This phenomenon was called the "Fatima Incident." The Portuguese used Fatima to illustrate that only faith can create miracles.

Cristiano Ronaldo added: "Manchester United has good players, but some of them don't understand what the spirit of the Red Devils really means. I hope that can change in the future, or preferably now, because the potential of the club is amazing. That's in this world. One of the most successful clubs in history."

Recently, Ronaldo signed a two-year contract extension with Riyadh Victory of the Saudi Arabian Professional League, but he revealed that he will retire "soon" and has been preparing for this day for nearly 15 years. "I feel like I'm ready," he said. "Of course it's very difficult, and yes, I might cry. It's hard to adapt to losing the exciting feeling of walking into a stadium full of seats and fans chanting your name."

But Ronaldo added: "I think there's nothing like playing football. The adrenaline rush brought by football and scoring goals will disappear after retirement. However, everything has a beginning and everything has an end."

As for what to do after hanging up his boots, Ronaldo said: "I will have more time for myself. I will also have more time to spend with my family and raise my children. , especially the three-year-old Bella. I want to pay attention to Mini Luo, which is normal, and I also want to spend more time with my family. UFC competition, I like paddle tennis, I often play with friends. I want to know more about my company, I am a very curious person. "

Ronaldo has 5 children, 15-year-old Mini Ronaldo, 8-year-old twins Mateo and Eva, 7-year-old daughter Alana and 3-year-old Bella. The Portuguese superstar revealed that it was his daughter who convinced him to propose to his girlfriend Georgina. "My two daughters said to me: 'Then you have to give the ring to mom, and you should get married.' I know this is right, and for my daughters, this is the right time."

The wedding date has not yet been determined. Ronaldo will wait until next summer's World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico to make a decision, but there will not be a grand wedding banquet of the century. He emphasized that his net worth exceeded 1 billion when he was 39 years old, and he no longer cares about money. "At this stage of my life, I no longer care about these things. I just want to be happy and enjoy life. As (Swiss psychologist) Carl Jung said, after you are 40 years old, you will truly understand yourself and start living, and this is what I began to feel."
