Jamie Carragher has discussed Cristiano Ronaldo’s handling of his Portugal dispute on The Overlap Daily. VnExpress reports that the former defender compared Ronaldo’s public expression of personal demands with Lionel Messi’s and criticised defending every action of a player because of a close relationship. Carragher argued that people around leading players should still offer frank advice. These remarks are his commentary on public conduct, rather than a psychological assessment or a disciplinary finding.
