Garth Crooks has branded Cristiano Ronaldo as 'irritating' for questioning his Manchester United team-mates' mentality – when he should be looking at his own behaviour instead.
The Portuguese striker took aim at his younger United team-mates in an explosive interview last week where told them to listen to his advice so they can secure a top-three finish this season.
While his words were backed by United fans up and down the country, BBC pundit Crooks took issue with the forward, saying he expects better from the 36-year-old.
Crooks – who made seven appearances for United while on loan from Tottenham in the 1980s – claimed that Ronaldo has acted like a 'prima donna' ever since returning to Old Trafford last summer, saying he constantly 'throws his arms up in the air when things doesn't go his way' while he blames others for United's misfortunes.
