Ronaldo has become the focus of the world football community when he released a shocking interview, in which the Man United star criticized Man United's current situation.
He has faced a number of backlashes for deciding to do the interview, but Jose Morais - former Jose Mourinho's assistant coach at Real Madrid - insists the striker is "a person who knows the knows and the reality".
Morais spent three years working with Ronaldo during their time together at Real Madrid, where he scored an astonishing 168 goals during that time.
Morais told A Bola: "Working with Cristiano was one of the best moments I had as a coach. He is a great guy and a classy player.
Im not saying Ronaldo is an airport driver because he is a human being. He also has thoughts, emotions and the right to express his feelings.
"Having a player like him is a blessing for the coaches. There is no doubt that Cristiano is a sensitive and practical person.
