I cannot believe that people still think that Ronaldo was mistreated after it happened with 4 different managers. He was benched back in Juventus, he was benched by whoever that interim manager was last year in United, he was benched by Erik Tan Hag, and he was benched by Portugal manager, that's four different managers that managed to bench him.

Do we really think that he is still not doing what he supposed to do and just accept the fact that he is a bench player for high level teams? He will be hard to call up for euro 2024 if you ask me, dude would be nearing 40 by that time, and you think he would be any good by that time? I highly doubt that.

i totally agree with you, i've been arguing with some friends about how much Ronaldo's performance dropped and he's not the same effective player anymore, the fact that he played in all matches is good enough for him and his age, he's not as effective as he was and a lot of people don't want that to happen that's why its hard for them to accept the fact that he's reaching the end of his career, Portugal still has a decent team though but i don't expect a lot from them in the 2024 Euro.

The biggest problem that Ronaldo has is not that he no longer plays at the level he did a year or two ago, but that he doesn't realize it and ultimately demands that he has to play.
In this way, he got into a conflict with the coach of Manchester United, and then into a conflict with the coach of Portugal.
I think it is obvious that the conflict between the coach Portugal and Ronaldo has destroyed the unity in the Portuguese team and reduced their chances to make a good result in this World Cup.
I even think that without Ronaldo they would have achieved a much better result in Qatar.
The Portuguese team is still very good, they no longer depend on Ronaldo and they can still make good results in the next competitions.
