On the occasion of the Globe Soccer Awards on Friday, Cristiano Ronaldo once again criticized the level of Ligue 1. And unsurprisingly, his statements were not popular in France.
Clearly, Cristiano Ronaldo is really not a fan of Ligue 1. After his previous criticisms last January, the Al-Nassr striker was at it again during the Globe Soccer Awards on Friday. “ Obviously, the Saudi Pro League is better than Ligue 1compared the Portuguese. Try sprinting at 38, 39 or 40 degrees and you'll see. France only has PSG. The others are finished. » As one might expect, his statements annoyed quite a few French observers like Frédéric Weis.
Ronaldo's argument destroyed
« I don't agree in principle because he already told us this last year, we're a little fed up with itthe RMC columnist got annoyed. He has never played in France. As luck would have it, he played in Spain and Italy, so obviously he will never criticize these two championships because he was a star there. He is not going to criticize the championships where he played obviously. Finally, typing on France is quite easy. And when he says “come and play in 37, 38 degrees”, what’s the argument? The Saudi Pro League is better than Ligue 1 because they are able to play under 37 or 38 degrees? This is a completely ridiculous argument! »
« The salary must be very, very good to be able to talk so much nonsenseblurted out the former basketball player. He doesn't know France, he doesn't know its championship. He talks about it casually as if he knows it. He plays in a championship of grandpas who are in early retirement, so obviously it's easier to criticize others. In all countries there is an undisputed leader, these are what we call the locomotives. » At one time, the supremacy of Paris Saint-Germain bothered him much less since CR7 considered signing for the Ile-de-France club.
