CRISTIANO RONALDO appeared miserable in the background of an Instagram picture posted by his mum this morning.
Dolores Aveiro posted a selfie with the forward's eldest son Cristiano Ronaldo Jr and captioned the snap with: "Good morning, I'm already with my boys."

Ten Hag has insisted that the Portugal skipper is still happy at the club despite recent controversy.
Ahead of United's midweek clash with Leicester, he said: "We are happy with him, he's happy to be here and we want to make the season a success together.
