The Guardian's Manchester football correspondent, Jamie Jackson, gives his opinion on Cristiano Ronaldo's comments after clips from his interview with Piers Morgan were released. In the interview, Ronaldo claimed the Manchester United coach, Erik ten Hag, and unnamed executives are eager to force him out of the club.
The Portuguese forward went on to attack the structure of the club, claiming United have not progressed since Sir Alex Ferguson retired in 2013. Jackson considers how justified Ronaldo's claims of 'disrespect' are after walking out of two games this season, and whether there is any way back for Ronaldo at Old Trafford
