So tired of these ex players in the media saying you can't come out and question the club or tactics in the media. Says who? You lot who are totally out of touch with the people who matter the most and pay the most. FANS! Don't dictate what can and can't happen.

Gary Neville, unsurprisingly, is missing the point on Lisandro Martinez. He's not attacking his teammates, but merely protecting them from a hierarchy that caused a 19-year-old CB to play left-back in a Champions League game.

Lisandro Martinez build him a statue. Finally a serving player calling out the board and owners. Rest of the dressing room should stand with him immediately

This is not arrogance. This is a fact so let check.
What does COMPLETE mean?
Complete does not mean most talented. Complete does not mean best dribbler. Complete means you can do EVERYTHING in football at an elite level. And only one player in history can.
Let's break it down:
Left foot? 150+ goals with his left. Messi can't say that about his right.
Right foot? 550+ goals. His main weapon.
Head? 150+ headed goals. The greatest header of the ball ever. Jumps 2.93m, hang time, power. Messi has 30 headed goals in his entire career. That's not complete.
Free kicks? 64 free kick goals. Long range curl, knuckleball.
Penalties? Clutch. Champions League finals, Euros.
Weak foot, strong foot, head, free kicks, long shots, tap-ins, overhead kicks. Cristiano has scored every type of goal. Bicycle kick vs Juventus, header vs Sampdoria, knuckleball vs Portsmouth, solo run vs Getafe.
Name me one type of goal Messi cannot score with his head? He can't. Name me one way Cristiano can't score? You can't.
Complete means complete everywhere.
Top scorer in England - where pace and power matter.
Top scorer in Spain - where technique matters.
Top scorer in Italy - where tactics and defence matter.
Top scorer in Champions League - 7 times.
Top scorer for his country - all-time international top scorer with 130+ goals.
He won league titles in 3 countries, Champions League with 2 clubs, Euros with Portugal, a team that never won anything before him.
What is incomplete about that?
Messi is complete in one system Barcelona, tiki-taka, short passes, 4-3-3, on the ground. Take him out of that system and put him in Stoke on a rainy night or against prime Serie A defenders, he disappears. We saw it at PSG - 32 goals in 75 games.
Cristiano is complete in ANY system. Counter-attack at United, possession at Real, defensive at Juventus, crossing at Portugal. He adapts, he scores.
He earned the right.
950+ career goals. 5 Ballon d'Ors. 5 Champions Leagues. Played 20+ years at the highest level. Never protected by a club. Built himself from Madeira streets to Manchester to Madrid to Turin to Saudi. No academy built for him, no Xavi and Iniesta feeding him for 15 years.
So when he looks in the camera and says "I am the most complete player ever" - he is not asking for your opinion. He is telling you what real ball knowers already knew since 2014.
You don't have to believe him.
You just have to know football.
๐จ๐ฃ๏ธ ๐ก๐๐ช: Cristiano Ronaldo declares himself the MOST COMPLETE PLAYER IN FOOTBALL HISTORY!
โIf someone prefers Messi, Pelรฉ or Maradona, thatโs a matter of personal taste. I RESPECT THAT.
โBut to say Cristiano Ronaldo is NOT a complete player is a LIE.
โI AM THE MOST COMPLETE PLAYER.โ

As we are now living in a moment where everyone can talk about everything without knowing anythingโฆ
I think I can also make a suggestion. (The best thing Iโve heard these days was Felipe Gomes comparing him to Kobe)
For Cristianoโs farewell in a Portugal shirt:
4 friendly matches in his final year:
๐ช๐ธ vs Spain at the Bernabรฉu
๐ง๐ท vs Brazil at the Maracanรฃ
๐ฎ๐น vs Italy in Turin
๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ vs England at Old Trafford
It would be one of the best ways to honor the best player of all time, in the stadiums where he gave us some of our greatest memories, and against countries that deserve to be part of his farewell.
Cristiano deserves it. Football deserves it. And we, as fans, deserve it.

"I can also exclusively tell you that if Manchester City are kicked out of the Premier League, the EFL plan to read the verdict, and they are willing, in solidarity, to back the Premier League position and try to keep Manchester City out of the EFL as well.
So there's a danger in a doomsday scenario that Manchester City could be kicked out of football altogether."

Well, just one man eclipses Kane: Cristiano Ronaldo.
