Throwback to Cristiano Ronaldo receiving the Roy Keane treatment MUFC
Cristiano Ronaldo had one of the best mentors in Roy Keane and the Manchester United man still rates him highly.
Signed from Sporting Lisbon in the summer of 2003, a winning mentality was soon ingrained in him by his skipper.AdvertisementKeane was as fierce a leader as you could find during the late nineties and early noughties, and he ensured Ronaldo knew exactly what was expected of him in addition to his trademark flicks, tricks and stunning finishes.
Those responsibilities included tracking his marker and ensuring his opposite number was unable to cause damage via a cross or shot.If you didn’t live up to Keane’s high standards then he’d let you know about it, as Ronaldo found out. In one training ground match, after losing his man down his left side that led to a goal, Keane can be heard shouting at him to stay focused: “Come on, Cristiano”.
