England football player, Wayne Rooney, responded after the controversial interview that shook the football world. Rooney said Messi is the greatest ever (GOAT) in world football. Cristiano Ronaldo called teammate Wayne Rooney a rat in a TV interview. It is noted that Rooney gave an indirect answer to this.
Cristiano Controversial Interview
Cristiano Ronaldo’s interview with the British journalist Piers Morgan has created quite a controversy in the world of football. In the interview, Cristiano made serious accusations against Manchester United, the coach Eric Tenhaag and his teammate Wayne Rooney. The player has openly said that United cheated him and that he has no respect for coach Tenhag.
“Not only the coach, but two or three other people are trying to get me out of the team… I feel cheated now. Some people don’t like me staying here. “Not only this year, they had the same situation last year as well,” Cristiano said. The player added that because the coach did not respect him, he did not respect him in return and that Wayne Rooney’s criticism of him was due to jealousy. Rodaldo described Rooney as a ‘rat’ in the interview.
Ronaldo’s comments were the subject of much discussion after the interview was released. After this, the huge mural of the star placed in front of Manchester United’s home ground, Old Trafford, was removed. There are signs that Manchester United are preparing to make a move against Ronaldo. It is reported that Cristiano has breached the terms of the contract with the club and so United are taking strong action against the player. Western media are reporting that Cristiano has been instructed not to return to the club’s training center in Carrington.
Rooney’s answer
Rooney described Ronaldo’s comments as ‘strange’ in his response on Friday. Rooney described Messi as the best player ever in football. Rooney also said that the 37-year-old Messi can lead Argentina to victory in the Qatar World Cup.
“My favorite team is Argentina. Unlike 2018, Lionel Messi is surrounded by solid players like Lautaro Martinez, Leandro Paredes, Rodrigo De Paul and Angel Di Maria. Winning the Copa America last year will give them confidence. The weather in Qatar will be perfect for Argentina. “I think they are very dangerous,” Rooney said.
Rooney also answered the question of whether winning the World Cup would make Metty the greatest football player of all time. “Everyone has a different opinion about Messi and Ronaldo, but I have said many times that Messi is the best. Diego Maradona was a player similar to Messi. I have seen many of his videos. But I think Messi is an even better player. “The way he controls games, dribbles and assists are all fantastic,” Rooney said.
