David De Gea Reveals How Cristiano Ronaldo Helps Teammates At Manchester United

David de Gea believes that Cristiano Ronaldo helps his teammates off the pitch due to his elite mentality, as it shows the younger players how to act and look after themselves.

“He’s great, the way he works speaks for himself. The way he treats himself, his body. He is focused in every training session and every game.

“This is why he is one of the best in history. He’s mentally very strong and that’s an example for everyone [to follow].”

Although the forward is certainly one to look up to and learn from, Here David de Gea is just one of many veteran players willing to help the new kids and tries to set a good example.

“As an experienced player in the squad, [I try] to give advice to the younger players,” De Gea explained.

“I give 100 per cent every day in training [and] in games, to try to be an example for everyone.”

De Gea echoes Ronaldo's mentality as he goes on to say: “[I] think it is not just about talking and giving advice to the boys, it's the way you work, the way you treat people in the club, the way you train, the way you play.

"I think this is even more important than words.”
