The two sides are due to meet in midweek when the two sides go
head-to-head in the Champions League on Tuesday.
And according to the News of the World the Spanish
star appears to be clearly unimpressed with the Red Devil.
“Cristiano is a great player and I once said he made up 50 per
cent of United’s strike force,” said Senna.
“Now I think I over-rated his importance. When Cristiano does
not score, his role is limited. Yes, he is fast, but countless
step-overs are not necessarily productive.”
Ronaldo limped out of United’s goalless draw with Aston Villa
yesterday and is now a doubt for the Villarreal game.
Yet Senna clearly does not believe the hype that surrounds the
Portuguese player and views Ronaldinho as a better footballer.
“He is not a complete player like Ronaldinho in the good times,”
explained the Villarreal skipper.
“He used to score, take penalties, free kicks, dribble, give
accurate short and deep passes, assist and run everywhere.”
United travel to Spain on Tuesday to meet Villarreal with both
sides hoping to improve on the goalless draw the two sides shared
at Old Trafford in their opening Champions League encounter of the
season.
