Manchester United: Cristiano Ronaldo knows the Red Devils' biggest problem

Manchester United: Cristiano Ronaldo on the Club’s Biggest Problem

Cristiano Ronaldo once again spoke candidly about his former club, Manchester United, during an interview with Piers Morgan. The Portuguese legend was asked about his compatriot Ruben Amorim’s performance at the helm of the team.

"He's doing his best. In Portugal, we say: 'miracles only happen in Fatima...' And he won't work miracles."

Ronaldo reflected on the state of his beloved club, acknowledging the talent within the squad but highlighting a deeper problem with mentality and structure.

"They have good players, but some of them still don't really understand what Manchester United represents. Personally, I'm sad because of the club, which is one of the most important in the world and one that remains close to my heart for obvious reasons."

He emphasized the need for intelligence and leadership both on and off the pitch to rebuild the foundation that once made United a global powerhouse.

"You need to surround yourself with smart people, with brilliant people, to build the foundations for the future, like Manchester United did so many years ago. Nicky Butt, Gary Neville, Roy Keane, David Beckham—they became great players, but they were young once."

Ronaldo concluded with a note of hope, lamenting the absence of structure but expressing enduring affection for the club.

"Manchester United right now has no structure. I hope that will change in the future, because the club's potential is incredible. It's one of the most important clubs of the century. They don't have a structure... but they're still in my heart. I love that club."
