Ronaldo's food?

"There is no expensive food, but healthy food. I use organic and natural foods - fish, chicken, veal, eggs, avocado, coconut oil and black rice. You have to take care of your body like a Ferrari.

"I cook with coconut oil. It's also important to drink lots of water, but it has to be purified. Of course, all this is combined with very hard training. Rest is also essential, as well as training or nutrition. Dinner is also important. early." Open / Comment

2021-09-09 17:16:01 Wayne Rooney: “I haven’t spoken to Cristiano [Ronaldo] since his return and I won’t be going to the game on Saturday. I’ve got a day off on Saturday and two of my sons have got their own games, so I’ll be taking them and being a taxi driver on Saturday.

Obviously I follow Manchester United, I want them to do well, and I think it’s great for them that they’ve brought Cristiano [Ronaldo] back. His mentality will rub off on the younger players, especially, so I think it’s a great signing.

Cristiano [Ronaldo] will know himself it’s not going to be as simple or straightforward for him as it was in Spain or Italy. It’s a physical league, but he knows that — I’m sure he’s prepared and ready to go and score goals again for United.

What impact Cristiano Ronaldo can have in his second spell at United? An enormous one. He’s one of the best players in the world. We saw, in the game against Ireland, what he does — he can have a massive impact on the Premier League.

I think United are finally ready to go and challenge for the title, and I really feel they have to, this year. So Cristiano’s going to be a very big player, I think he’s going to have big moments in the season and I’m sure he’ll score a lot of goals.” Open / Comment
