🚨Luis Nani on the controversy between Jorge Jesus and Cristiano Ronaldo:

🗣️ Luis Nani: “I spoke to Cristiano after everything happened, and I asked him one question: ‘Brother, are you really leaving Portugal like this?’

“He didn’t answer immediately.

“He just said, ‘Nani, you know me. I can accept being left out. I can accept criticism. What I cannot accept is feeling like everything I’ve given Portugal suddenly means nothing.’

“That sentence stayed with me.

“Because I know Cristiano. I’ve shared a dressing room with him since we were young. I know how competitive he is. If the coach tells him, ‘Cristiano, you’re not playing tonight because I have another tactical plan,’ he might be angry, but he’ll understand.

“But if you make him feel unwanted, that’s different.

“I reminded him of Euro 2016. I reminded him of all the times we travelled together, the nights we suffered, the games where Portugal needed one moment and he gave it to us.

“He just said, ‘Nani, I never asked Portugal to play me because of what I did before. I only wanted them to respect what I can still give.’

“And honestly, that broke something in me.

“Because that’s the Cristiano I know.

“He doesn’t want a favour.

“He doesn’t want people to put him on the pitch because his name is Ronaldo.

“He wants to know that when Portugal calls him, they still believe he can contribute.

“I told him, ‘Maybe Jorge is trying to build the next Portugal. Maybe he wants the younger players to take responsibility.’

“He said, ‘Then let them. I will never stop them. But don’t build the future by disrespecting the past.’

“That was when I realised this wasn’t really about one game or one benching.

“It was about communication.

“You can tell Cristiano, ‘Your role has changed.’

“You can tell him, ‘You’re not going to play every match.’

“You can even tell him, ‘There are games where we need younger legs.’

“But you have to look him in the eyes and tell him the truth.

“Because Cristiano can handle the truth.

“I remember when we were young, we used to argue about everything. Football, training, who was better, who should take the free-kick. [laughs]

“But even then, I knew one thing about him.

“He would rather hear something painful from a friend than something comfortable from somebody who doesn’t mean it.

“So when I saw him leave the Portugal camp, I didn’t immediately ask, ‘What did Cristiano do?’

“I asked, ‘What happened between two people who should have been able to solve this inside the dressing room?’

“Because this isn’t just a player and a coach anymore.

“This is Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal.

“And after everything he has given that shirt, if this really is the beginning of the end, then I hope they find a way to end it with respect.

“Cristiano doesn’t need Portugal to protect his legacy.

Portugal needs to remember that it was privileged to have Cristiano Ronaldo protecting its shirt for more than two decades.”

🚨 Luis Figo on Portugal immediately giving Cristiano Ronaldo’s No.7 to Rafael Leao following his departure:

“I remember Cristiano’s first years with Portugal.

One day after training, some of the older players were talking and Cristiano was still outside doing something with the ball.

I looked over and said, ‘Does this boy ever go inside?’

Someone said, ‘Leave him. He wants to become the best player in the world.’

I laughed.

Cristiano heard us.

He came over and said, ‘Not just the best. I want to do something for Portugal that people remember.’

I told him, ‘Then you’re going to suffer.’

He looked confused.

I said, ‘Playing for your country is different. When things are good, everybody belongs to you. When things are bad, you still have to come back. That’s the deal.’

He said, ‘I’ll always come back.’

I thought about that conversation today.

Because more than twenty years later, Cristiano finally left a Portugal camp, and his number given to Rafael instantly.

And instead of immediately asking why the boy who told us he’d always come back finally decided to walk away, everybody seems in a hurry to show how quickly football can continue without him.

That worries me.

Not because Portugal cannot continue without Cristiano.

Of course it can.

I worry about the 12-year-old Portuguese boy watching.

Maybe Cristiano is the reason he started playing football. Maybe number seven is on the back of every Portugal shirt he’s ever owned.

One day that boy might become the next star.

He might become somebody we haven’t heard of yet.

And when he arrives at the national team, we’ll tell him exactly what we told Cristiano.

‘This shirt is different.’

Sacrifice for it.

Play hurt for it.

Come whenever you’re called.

Put the country before yourself.

But children aren’t stupid. Footballers aren’t either.

Eventually one of them will ask the question nobody wants to hear:

‘What happens when I’ve given Portugal everything?’

That’s why how you treat Cristiano at the end matters.

I remember another conversation with him years later.

By then he wasn’t the skinny boy anymore. He was captain.

I joked, ‘You said you’d do something Portugal would remember. I think they’ve noticed now.’

He laughed and said, ‘I’m not finished.’

That became Cristiano’s relationship with Portugal.

Never finished.

Lose a tournament, come back.

Get criticised, come back.

Get older, come back.

People tell you the next generation is ready, come back.

Until eventually, something happened and he didn’t come back.

He packed his things and left.

Then he told the Portuguese people that one day he would explain ‘the truth.’

I don’t know what happened inside those conversations, so I’m not going to invent it.

But if a relationship lasting more than twenty years ends like that, the federation shouldn’t only be thinking about the player who walked out of the building.

They should be thinking about the boys watching him walk out.

Because one day Portugal will ask one of them for everything too.

And when that day comes, you don’t want him remembering Cristiano Ronaldo and thinking:

‘Everything?’

I told Cristiano all those years ago that playing for your country means always coming back.

Perhaps there was another part we should have told him.

Your country should give you a reason to.”

Every day this quote ages like wine. I would have posted this even if we won tonight.Because this man was a visionary and he was trying to tell us things & play football that was ahead of his time,and the grasping capabilities of the Utd fanbase back then

The time has come to say goodbye, I have decided to finish my career as a professional player. It’s been an amazing ride and I wanted to thank every single person who has helped me and supported me through the highs and lows during a career which lasted over 20 years and gave me so many unforgettable memories. Time to turn a new leaf and focus on new goals and dreams. See you soon!

Obrigado. Thank you. Gracias. Grazie. Teşekkürler ❤️⚽️

@NewRockstars He is Ironman period
Don’t fuck with it
People will never be able to not see him as Ironman
If he is a variant with a less screen time then it’s okay but I don’t think that will be the case.
Not a good casting call
playing on nostalgia at this level is no good
