Clint Morrison has slammed Cristiano Ronaldo for having a negative impact on Manchester United’s youngsters. The Portuguese has received heavy criticism for his reaction to his substitution against Brentford. The 36-year-old was on his best behavior on Saturday, however, when he was kept on the pitch for the entire game.
Ronaldo also had a part to play in setting up the winning goal. However, Morrison believes the Portuguese should be a better role model at Old Trafford.
“The best thing about this Brentford game was Marcus Rashford’s scoring. He looked down at the dumps and lacked confidence. His body language didn’t look right. This goal should give him the necessary confidence. »
“Instead of talking about Rashford scoring a goal, we end up talking about Cristiano Ronaldo who should lead by example, and how he got off the pitch. These young people admire him. It has an impact! Morrison said.
