The former Aston Villa striker said;
"For a lot of Man United fans, it will be painful watching Ronaldo at the moment. He's 37; he's outdone most footballers by five or six years, but you can't hide from ageing. Age catches up with everyone, and it looks like it has caught up with Ronaldo,
His legs look tired; he doesn't look as quick and sharp getting round players. He's also not a presser from the front either. With all those things, it doesn't make sense for him to keep starting,
But who else have they got? They have not got many other options there. Unless they play Rashford as a striker or a false nine.
It's a big worry for Man United if they have Ronaldo and Cavani as the options up there for next season.ÔÇØ
