      However, he has since come under fire for his comments, in which he argued the Saudi top flight is superior.
      Speaking at the event, Ronaldo claimed: “Saudi League is not worse than Ligue 1.
      “Saudi Pro League is more competitive than Ligue 1, I can say that after one year spent there. We are better than the French league already now.”
      Ryanair were quick to respond on X, formerly Twitter, though.

      Reacting to Ronaldo’s comments, the airline wrote: “Finally, someone funnier than us.”
      Fans were left in hysterics by the reply, with one commenting: “Someone come take Ronaldo out the oven, he’s ready. Ryanair cooked.”
      Another added: “That’s crazy.”
      A third supporter also wrote: “Never thought I’d see the day.”

      Meanwhile, one more also said: “This is wild. Let them cook.”
      Ronaldo had earlier hailed himself the world’s best goal scorer at the event and praised Manchester City’s treble triumph.
      However, he missed out on being named best men’s player to City striker Erling Haaland.
      The seven-time Ballon d’Or winner did take home three other awards, though, including fan’s favourite player.
      Ronaldo joined Al-Nassr in January last year and has since scored 34 goals in 34 Saudi Pro League appearances, along with 11 assists.
      20 of those goals have come so far this season, with the 38-year-old the current top scorer ahead of ex-Fulham man Aleksandar Mitrovic.

      Arsenal brutally trolled by Ryanair with savage KSI Prime tweet after getting massacred by Man City in title decider

      Mikel Arteta’s side were outplayed in the title clash with City winning 4-1.
      Ryanair reacted by sharing a photoshopped snap of KSI on board one of their planes, carrying his signature ‘Prime’ bottle.
      But they also photoshopped the energy drink, who partner Arsenal, to make it read ‘bottled it’.
      They added a caption which read: “Limited edition made with real Gunner tears”.

      KSI replied saying “funny”, but indicated he was hurting behind the smile.
      Fans are joking that Arsenal have bottled winning the league in the outbreak of their Etihad defeat.
      Earlier this month they were eight points ahead of Pep Guardiola’s side – that gap is now down to just two points with Arsenal having played two games more.
      After beating Brighton on New Year’s Eve Arsenal had 43 points from just 16 games – no team with that amount of points at that stage of the season has failed to win the title.

      Per Opta, they are also the first side to go four consecutive Prem games winless while starting the day top for each match since Arsenal themselves in March 2008.
      According to a supercomputer there is just a ten per cent chance Arsenal will win the league.
      It tips the Gunners to earn just nine more points from their five remaining games, which could mean defeats to Chelsea, Newcastle, or Brighton.
      City goalkeeper Ederson also trolled Arsenal fans by turning to the away end and pretending to cry after the full-time whistle. More

      ‘Ain’t cool’ – Man Utd cult hero Ravel Morrison slams Ryanair after ‘heartless’ tweet to Jadon Sancho over World Cup axe

      He has scored just three goals in 14 appearances across all competitions so far this season.
      So it came as little surprise to fans when it was announced that he had been left out of Gareth Southgate’s 26-man England squad for the upcoming Qatar World Cup.
      Once the full squad had been unveiled on Thursday afternoon, Ryanair were quick to respond to Sancho’s absence with a cheeky tweet.
      It read: “@Sanchooo10 we’ll still fly you somewhere” with a kiss emoji at the end.

      Many fans immediately jumped to the defence of Sancho and slammed Ryanair for the “heartless” comment.
      One person said: “So we’re setting a precedent that it’s ok for major global businesses to mock young athletes? Embarrassing tweet.”
      Another added: “How a global brand like this gets away with blatant bullying on a global stage, during a month dedicated to mental health for men, is completely disgusting.”
      While a third said: “I don’t really like this tweet, I know it’s meant light heartedly, but he’s a player clearly low on confidence already and missing out on a World Cup isn’t a nice moment.

      “Feel like these kind of jokes are better for smaller circumstances.”
      Former United star Morrison, who now plays for Wayne Rooney’s DC United, also took aim at the company, tweeting: “This ain’t cool!!”
      Ten Hag has played down Sancho’s omission from the England squad and blamed it on his recent illness.
      He said: “It’s been up and down.
      “He had some really good performances and I think he was heading in a good direction.
      “But the last weeks he struggled with illness and then it’s normal that you don’t get selected because every manager will only take fit players to the World Cup.”
      Sancho could return to United’s starting line-up on Sunday when the Red Devils take on Fulham. More

      Football fans across the world were quick to slam The Red Devils on social media as soon as Bryan Mbeumo put the ball past a panic-stricken David de Gea to score Brentford’s fourth goal of the afternoon.
      But, even National League side Oldham Athletic took part in the mocking.
      Oldham’s chairman Frank Rothwell was interviewed by BT Sport after the club’s 3-2 win over Dorking Wanderers, but he couldn’t resist making a little dig at United.
      Before the camera panned away, the boss – completely unprompted – cheekily said: “Do you know what’s happening to United?” before letting out a big laugh.

      Rothwell was not the only club chief to mention Man Utd’s misfortune.
      Serie A legend, former Italian Prime Minister and now-Monza owner Silvio Berlusconi also took his chance when questioned about the future of Cristiano Ronaldo.
      He said: “Is Cristiano Ronaldo leaving United? Lucky him.”

      And Specsavers doubled down on their criticism, firstly tweeting: “We’re working on a specific deal for United players.”
      And later mocking the club’s green third kit, adding: “Man Utd’s kit is too bright and is hurting their eyes. Please stop the game it’s not fair.”
      Various pundits also weighed in on the club’s recent form, but Liverpool icon Jamie Carragher arguably had the best response.
      He tweeted a cartoon picture of Man Utd legend and fellow Sky Sports presenter Gary Neville – and rubbed salt into the wound by making it his profile picture.
      Neville got into a passionate rant about his former club while appearing on Sky Sports after the game.
      He said: “These players have proven with three different managers now that they don’t work as hard as the opposition.
      “They don’t work hard enough, they don’t run fast enough and they are drained of confidence.
      “They need something. That’s got to come from above. Today was a new low.

      “Continually it seems United can surpass their previous low and things get lower and lower. This is really, really bad.”

      And Arsenal supporters were adamant that he was going to finalise the signing of Villarreal ace Yeremy PinoCredit: Twitter
      Reports suggest the Gunners have tabled a £33m bid for the winger.
      The North Londoners were handed a huge pursuit in the race for Pino after Villarreal boss Unai Emery admitted they might have to sell him if the right bid comes along.
      Pino would be a welcome addition to Arsenal’s new-look attack, spearheaded by Gabriel Jesus who scored a brace against Leicester City as the Gunners clinched their second win of the season.
      Now fans reckon Edu’s en route to Spain to finalise the deal for Pino.

      A man at least resembling the Arsenal supremo was spotted boarding a Ryanair flight to Valencia on Sunday, on Twitter.
      And a Twitter user insisted Edu was planning to briefly stop in Valencia before travelling to Villarreal to bring Pino back to the Emirates.
      They wrote: “Quick flight to Valencia, followed by a private car to Villarreal which is roughly 35miles away.
      “Face to face discussions required with Yeremy and his family to talk about the future.”

      Although another user claimed Edu’s family’s on holiday in the region, and he was going to join them.
      But Ryanair further flanned the flames by retweeting the image, and saying: “Edu, PINO(t) on the return flight?”
      Edu’s already made it clear that Arsenal are still intent on bringing in more players before the transfer window closes.
      It was thought the Gunners were keen on recruiting Leicester City ace Youri Tielemans this summer.
      But fresh reports claim they may be willing to wait until next summer to sign the Belgium international on a free transfer. More
