Regardless of scoring 18 Premier League targets throughout a dreadful season for Manchester United, Ronaldo wasn’t one of many nominated eight stars for the English league’s Participant of the Season.
Mohamed Salah (Liverpool), Son Heung-min (Tottenham), James Ward-Prowse (Southampton), Bukayo Saka (Arsenal), Joao Cancelo (Man Metropolis), Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool), Jarrod Bowen (West Ham), and Kevin De Bruyne (Man Metropolis) made the minimize as a substitute.

“Saka’s within the within the Participant of the Yr nominees?” the previous Purple Devils defender requested on his Vibe with 5 podcast.

Ferdinand added: “Ronaldo must be in forward of three or 4 of these guys in there.
“He most likely doesn’t win it however when it comes to nominees, it’s laughable. He’ll take it as a disrespect however these are the issues that gasoline him, he’ll be pondering, ‘how dare you?’.
“If it’s primarily based on stats, he’s like, ‘I’ve banged in additional targets than most of them on that checklist aside from Salah, so what are you speaking about?’”
Ronaldo will hope so as to add extra targets to his tally this Sunday when Manchester United go to Crystal Palace for his or her closing sport of the season.
