“It’s a bad time for us because we’re losing and we’re used to winning,” The World best footballer told Football Espana.

“It’s a bad patch for us, but we want to change it and I’m sure we will. This is the beginning, we still have a lot of time to improve and I’m convinced that we will.

“There’s been no harm done, but bad runs aren’t good and we have to change things.

“We have to admit that we aren’t as we’d like to be. I don’t see things to be so bad, but we have to be confident.

“Criticism? When you don’t win, people try to look for things, but I’m here talking, showing my face for my teammates, and I’m confident that things will change.

“It was a very big blow to go 3-0 down, although for me it wasn’t a good reflection of what happened on the pitch.

“Their first goal was offside, just like the other day. Our attitude is to run and fight, like it was at Girona.”

The defeat to Spurs on Wednesday, November 1, made it back to back defeats for the European champions after losing 2-1 away to Girona in the league four days ago.

Ronaldo has struggled for form this season scoring just one goal in the league.
