'Ronaldo could play for Millwall or QPR': Sir Alex's comments resurface after Messi's abysmal start at PSG

SPORTbible

 said: "People say who is the best player in the world? And plenty of people quite rightly say 

... anyone, and score a hat-trick in a game. I'm not sure Messi could do it.

"Ronaldo's got two feet, he's quick, great in the air, he's brave — Messi is brave, of course. I think Messi is a

The Argentine actually threw a tantrum last week, refusing to shake manager's

'This is what happens when you build Ronaldo up': Simon Jordan reacts to Cristiano's touchline incident

 owner Simon Jordan said: "You can't can't imagine a 

 player behaving in that fashion in the technical area if 

 up to the stage where people are suggesting he's bigger than Man United — which I think is laughable. I'm not sure a player being in the technical area is needed.

"If looks are part of it, does it illustrate that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is in command of the ship? I don't think he is. I think he's a manager that spends his time making sure players are happy rather than consequencing players when they need it,"

Ronaldo briefly acted as a player-manager in last week's 2–1 defeat against 

However, the Norwegian has already clarified that 

, explaining exactly what the 36-year-old forward was doing by his side in Bern.

Rio Ferdinand on Ronaldo's touchline conduct: 'If I'm manager I'm telling him to sit down'

 effectively acting as a manager in the dugout alongside Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

In the BT Sport studio afterwards, Rio Ferdinand argued that Solskjaer should've been a bit more assertive.

"If I'm the manager, I've got to be honest, I'm telling him to sit down," Ferdinand said about Cristiano.

At the same time, Rio understands that making Ronaldo sit down is easier said than done.

"I get it. You know, with Cristiano people go, "Oh it's bravado, it's for the fans". He's just a passionate guy. He wants to win, he's desperate to win, and he can't hold it in.

"If that means he has to go up there and stand next to the manager, shouting instructions etcetera, so be it.

"When it's someone of his standing and stature in the game how can you argue with it?"

To be fair to Solskjaer, even Portugal manager could not sit Ronaldo down in the European Championship final back in 2016, so any attempt to actually do it would have likely been in vain.

Difference is Ronaldo scores with or without tiki-taka!With his well chiselled body & sheer strength he’s the more complete striker and A MAN FOR ALL SEASONS!😁👏👏

I love Messi as a player, but I'd take Cristiano over him all day long.

Mark Jackson

That’s y Cristiano is Cristiano and Messi is (JUST) Messi…😉😂

I think the problem with PSG is there are too many technicaly gifted players and Messi will have to realise he’s no longer the darling of the side like he was at Barcelona.  They all want to score goals and Messa is gonna have to realise they ain’t gonna lay as many chances for him on a plate.  He’s gonna have to be more predatory in his aproach to scoring goals
