Ronaldo: My pal Rooney will bounce back
Table of Contents
Cristiano Ronaldo believes it is only a matter of time before his former Manchester United team-mate Wayne Rooney emerges from his current slump in form.
Rooney has been plagued by poor form and it is now more than seven months since he last scored a Premier League goal from open play.
In contrast Ronaldo is enjoying his richest vein of form since he moved for a world record fee to Real Madrid last year, scoring nine goals in his last four appearances for the Spanish giants.
"Wayne has not started this season very well but he is still a fantastic player and I know that very soon he will be back to show that," Ronaldo told The Sun.
"I didn't start this season very well, either. But it is difficult to play at the highest level all the time. I just stayed calm, worked hard and did my job for the team and suddenly I scored a few goals and everything changed.
"Football is like that. Sometimes we play bad and then you score a goal and everyone thinks differently about you. That will happen for Wayne."
