While Ronaldo understands that United may not be Premier League contenders at present, he feels that expectations shouldn’t be lowered at a club of their size.

He said on Rio Ferdinand's Five YouTube channel: “Manchester United, they need to rebuild everything, in my opinion. 

“The coach, they say they cannot compete to win the Premier League and Champions League. Manchester United coach, you cannot say that you’re not going to fight to win the League or Champions League.

"You have to be, to mentally say, 'listen maybe we don’t have that potential, but I cannot say that. We’re going to try. You have to try.'"
