Manchester United: Garth Crooks SLAMS 'prima donna' Cristiano Ronaldo for his 'irritating' behaviour

Daily Mail  

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. Garth Crooks has branded 'irritating' Cristiano Ronaldo as a 'prima donna' Crooks' comments come after Ronaldo questioned his team-mates' mentality 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. In his Team of the Week column for BBC Sport, Crooks wrote: 'Manchester United interim boss Ralf Rangnick wants his players to hold each other to account after Cristiano Ronaldo questioned their mentality. Crooks says he 'expects better' from the Portuguese star, who re-joined United in the summer 'He may be the star of the show but the constant waving of his hands in the air when events don't go his way - a sign that the crowd's moans and groans regarding United's failures are all down to his team-mates and nothing to do with him - is irritating.'
