I'm glad he was asked this question. There can't be an excuse. When was the last time he scored a decisive header, set up a goal, 2 goals in one game for Portugal? He was defensive in his answer. Perfectly fine with me. In this case, I side with the reporters who expect much more from him.
Video Cristiano Ronaldo answers his critics, Portugal press conference, March 27, 2009
(Cristiano Ronaldo responde a críticas)
English translation:
Cristiano Ronaldo: "The statistics don't say that. If everyone did what I've done Portugal would be world champion. If you [media] keep insisting in that point ----that I don't perform as well in the national team. I don't agree with that all.
00:21 What I do with the national team is very positive. In a certain way, I play different in club. I play with my teammates [club] always. In the national team it's not like that. If you think that my performance with Manchester and with the national team is different." Video ends.
