Former Red Devils player believes Cristiano Ronaldo should start from the bench for Portugal in upcoming fixtures.
A former Manchester United star has called on Portugal’s coaching crew to drop Cristiano Ronaldo from the starting lineup, warning that the legendary forward ‘needs to be saved from himself.’ The ex-United man made this statement ahead of Portugal’s next international matches, expressing concern over Ronaldo’s current form and potential impact on the team.

Former Premier League Star Doubts England’s World Cup Chances, Says Trophy Is Out of Reach
Ex-top flight player insists England lack what it takes to lift the World Cup, but does not name specific reasons
Ex-top flight player insists England lack what it takes to lift the World Cup, but does not name specific reasons
A former Premier League star has declared that England will not win the World Cup, casting doubt on the Three Lions’ ability to bring football’s biggest prize back home. The comment was made ahead of the next edition of the tournament, but further details—including the identity of the player, context of the remarks, or any direct quote—were not provided in available reports.
The statement adds fresh fuel to ongoing debates about whether England have what it takes to compete with global heavyweights like Brazil, Argentina, and France on football’s grandest stage. Without naming any tactical weaknesses or squad issues, the unnamed ex-player simply dismissed England’s chances outright.
For Nigerian fans, this opinion will strike a familiar chord—many remember when similar doubts trailed the Super Eagles ahead of recent Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) campaigns. While England boasts one of Europe’s most valuable squads and a strong qualifying record, history shows they often fall short at key moments. The last time England lifted a major trophy was at Wembley in 1966.
Neither Gareth Southgate nor any current England international had responded to these comments at press time. No official reaction came from the English FA either, leaving supporters and pundits to speculate about whether this criticism could spark a stronger showing next summer.
England’s next competitive fixtures are scheduled for later this year as they continue preparations for the World Cup qualifiers. Fans will be watching closely to see if this outspoken verdict motivates Southgate’s men—or proves prophetic when the tournament finally kicks off.
