Rio Ferdinand: Cristiano Ronaldo needed to humiliate Jamie Carragher
Rio Ferdinand, a former player for Manchester United, revealed to 'FIVE' how Cristiano Ronaldo ignored Jamie Carragher before to the Premier League matchup versus Liverpool.

The former defender is aware that the Portuguese needed to expose him because they were aware of the criticism he was receiving.

Jamie Carragher is one of many ex-Premier League football players whose criticism of current Premier League players is frequently published in the English press. Before the match against Liverpool, which the Red Devils ultimately won, the Portuguese ignored him for his unkind remarks about Cristiano Ronaldo.

Rio Ferdinand, speaking to ‘FIVE’, had this to say about the Portuguese’s gesture: “Knowing Cristiano Ronaldo, Jamie Carragher has talked a lot about him being the problem and things like that. Believe me, Cristiano would have seen those comments and would have thought to go over there and let him know with a bit of…. He needed to calm him down, humiliate him and embarrass him on live television.”

“Cristiano is very calculating, he’s very aware of what’s going on, he’s not someone who sits at home and switches off. I’ve always said it: he uses social media and people’s comments as fuel to push himself to be the best, he’s done it since he was a kid,” he continued.

“He knew about anyone who spoke badly about him in the media. Once, he told me about Gary Lineker because he’s a big Messi fan. I was thinking, ‘Brother, you’re not even in this country, how can you see the pictures? He knows everything,'” added a surprised Ferdinand.
