Pundits, coaches, sports administrators and fans in the football world has turned on Cristiano Ronaldo in the latest controversial chapter of his topsy-turvy spell at Manchester United - after he stormed down the tunnel yet again before his side had beaten Tottenham 2-0 on Wednesday night.

Erik ten Hag's men completed an impressive victory over Spurs at Old Trafford thanks to goals from Fred and Bruno Fernandes - but the three points were quickly overshadowed by more theatricalities from the Portuguese outcast as he made for the dressing room prior to the final whistle.

 

United boss Erik ten Hag insisted he would 'deal with' the player on Thursday and the Dutch coach will be understandably unhappy that the story has detracted attention away from an impressive victory.

 

Ronaldo has now received a round of stern criticism from the pundits for his behaviour as speculation around his future at the club continues to swirl - with talkSport's Gabriel Agbonlahor leading the fury at the forward.

 

The former Aston Villa man labelled him 'a spoiled brat' after leaving the dugout yet again during his time at United - adding that the group play better without him and he should be left out of their next matchday squad to face Chelsea.

 

Meanwhile, a fuming Danny Mills told Sky Sports that Ronaldo has an ego issue and 'thinks he's bigger than the club'.

 

'It's an absolute disgrace. That's disrespectful to the team, to the manager, to the fans. They're winning 2-0, what complaint can he have? If they were losing 2-0, it still wouldn't be right, but I would sort of understand it.
