Cristiano Ronaldo joins Man Utd WhatsApp group and involved in banter with younger stars in bid to unify dressing room Ronaldo had slammed the attitude of his under-performing United team-mates and accused the young players of not listening to advice. But in an effort to banish any dressing room cliques, the 36-year-old Portuguese superstar is now a member of at least one WhatsApp group used by the club’s younger players. Ronaldo is now joining in text banter with the likes of Marcus Rashford, 24, new starlet Anthony Elanga, 19, James Garner, 20, - currently on loan at Nottingham Forest - and the older Jesse Lingard, 29. United boss Ralf Rangnick endorsed Ronaldo’s explosive TV rant at the younger players, insisting he was right to call them out. But Rangnick then gave Ronaldo a dressing down following his incredible strop after being subbed during United’s 3-1 Prem win over Brentford. United’s England defender Luke Shaw had also questioned the unity within the squad. But a club insider revealed: “Some of the younger players like to communicate via WhatsApp. “They are never off their phones and regularly swap exchanges, send jokes and funny clips and chat about stuff like computer games, fashion trends and music. “Ronaldo is almost twice the age of some of the members of the group and has four children and a pregnant fiance. “His life is very different to the younger ones who are just starting in the game. “Some are a bit star-struck by him but are really happy he’s joined the group and are delighted he is messaging everyone and joining in. “It makes him much more approachable, especially at a time when some of the younger members of the squad have been struggling with form.” Cristiano Ronaldo is 'VERY UPSET' Portugal did not qualify directly Cristiano Ronaldo is 'upset' Portugal did not qualify directly for this year's World Cup according to one of his Manchester United teammates. Portugal finished second in their World Cup qualification group behind Serbia, meaning they must now win in two play-off matches to secure their place in Qatar. Ronaldo's side lost 2-1 in the crucial final qualifying game against Serbia as they ended three points behind the Group A leaders. To make it football's showpiece tournament, Portugal will have to beat Turkey then one of Italy or North Macedonia. Now, Ronaldo's United teammate Fred has revealed the Portuguese player is 'very upset' his country did not directly qualify. 'We talk a little bit about this. Of course, he's very upset about not qualifying directly for the World Cup,' Fred told Eurosport. 'But, as a great player and as their captain, he knows how to prepare his team-mates in order to qualify. Obviously, he was very upset but he will work hard to be at the World Cup. 'Everybody knows that he wants to win everything, every time. So rest assured he will work hard to be at this World Cup.' Ronaldo has played in four World Cups having first featured in the tournament in 2006. Should Portugal reach Qatar and Ronaldo be part of the squad, he will move alongside Antonio Carbajal, Lothar Matthaus, Rafael Márquez and Gianluigi Buffon as the player to have been at the most World Cups. His longtime rival Lionel Messi as well as his former teammate Sergio Ramos could both also play at their fifth World Cup in Qatar. The furthest Ronaldo has made it in the tournament came in 2006 when Portugal reached the semi-final but were defeated by France. They would then go on to lose 3-1 to Germany in the third-place playoff.
