In an interaction with , Rooney was asked if Manchester United are a better team with Ronaldo in the side. He responded: "No, I don't think so. Him and [Lionel] Messi are arguably the two best players of all time and you can go either way with that, whatever way you decide. But I just think the things he has done from the start of the season, it is not acceptable for Manchester United. I've seen Roy Keane defending him. Roy wouldn't accept that." Rooney, who lifted 17 trophies during his time at Old Trafford, stated that the five-time Ballon d'Or winner should focus on his football. He added: "It is a distraction which Manchester United don't need at the minute. For Cristiano, just get your head down and work and be ready to play when the manager needs you. If he does that, he'll be an asset. If he doesn't, he'll become an unwanted distraction."

So far, he has netted three goals and contributed one assist in 16 appearances across competitions for United. Lauding new manager Erik ten Hag's efforts, Rooney added: "He's shown his strength and his character with how he dealt with Cristiano at times. He's the right man for the job. I think it will take time but it's a real step in the right direction to finish in that top four and get Champions League football again." Manchester United are currently fifth in the 2022-23 Premier League table with 23 points from 13 games, three points off the fourth spot. "We have to play football at a higher intensity."
