Former Arsenal winger, Ian Wright has told Cristiano Ronaldo
to ‘seek counselling’ to deal with criticism.
This was after the Portugal international clashed with
multiple Manchester United legends and former colleagues of his.
Ronaldo slammed recently Old Trafford heroes Wayne Rooney
and Gary Neville.
The Portugal striker said he does not understand why his
former colleagues are bent on criticising him all the time, adding that such
criticisms are hard to deal with.
And Premier league legend, Wright believes the Portugal
international’s behaviour has been ‘petty.’
Wright said it was sad, considering what the Portuguese has
achieved in football for him not to be able accept criticism.
He further noted that the 37-year-old is finding it
difficult realising that his career is coming to an end.
“For him not to be able to deal with his career coming to an
end – it happens to all of us, it happened to me – you do feel a sense of “is
that it?”
“He’s not used to hearing negativity but now it is coming to
him. It must be difficult for him and something he may need to seek counselling
for.”
On Ronaldo’s decision to blank Neville and Carragher, Wright
added: “I find that petty. I was quite uncomfortable watching what he did to
Jamie Carragher.
“It’s petty because Gary Neville has always stuck by
Ronaldo,” Wright added, wondering why the Portugal captain would go on to slam
Nevile who has always been on his side.
