World-class winger Cristiano Ronaldo previously played for Serie A side, Juventus prior to his stunning return to Premier League giants, Manchester United. CR7 had left Juventus for Manchester United on deadline day after a lackluster season as they finished fourth in Serie A while they also endured a heartbreaking defeat to Porto in the Champions League. Cristiano Ronaldo was recently featured in Amazon’s new “All of Nothing” documentary which documents the highs and lows of the club in the 2020/21 season as they strived for the Serie A trophy.
Cristiano Ronaldo was spotted berating his ex-teammates in Juventus
One of the dressing room footages which is during the half-time break shows how Cristiano Ronaldo was red-hot in anger for the team’s underwhelming performance on the field during a Champions League tie against Porto.
During the half-time, Ronaldo screamed the following at his teammates:“We have to work harder. What the f***! We didn’t play at all! Nothing!”
After former Chelsea winger Juan Cuadrado told the Portuguese “don’t worry”, he replied: “We played S***, always!”
Cuadrado responded: “You must be an example for everyone.”
To which Ronaldo replied: “I’m included too. We have to tell each other the truth, we played s***. This is a Champions League match, we need to have personality.”

Manager Andrea Pirlo, who was sacked at the end of the season, then got involved in the tiff and tried to calm down the situation.
“That’s enough, let’s go,” said the Juventus boss. “That’s enough, Cri. That’s enough, Juan. “We have to be calm and patient. We will continue in this spirit, but without arguing, with the posture of someone who wants to win.”
