Which three Manchester United players Cristiano Ronaldo considers 'top professionals'?

The Portuguese megastar excluded Marcus Rashford from his list.
When talking about his second stint at Manchester United, Cristiano Ronaldo only mentioned three players as “top professionals.”
Marcus Rashford seemed to respond to accusations of his lack of professionalism earlier this week when he told writer Henry Winter that he was “ready” for a new challenge.
Rashford’s competence and attitude were called into question after he was left out of Ruben Amorim’s matchday team for last weekend’s Premier League game against Manchester City.
Amorim insisted that there were definitely no disciplinary concerns in the dismissal of Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho, but rather he seemed to have doubts about their training output.
Cristiano Ronaldo had named-checked three players he thought had been “top professionals” during his second stint at Manchester United. Rashford didn’t qualify for that list.
Nevertheless, the five-time winner of the Ballon d’Or mentioned fellow Portugal international Diogo Dalot as a professional and predicted that he would remain at the top level for a considerable amount of time.
Ronaldo also named Casemiro and Argentine centre-back Lisandro Martinez. Both were commended for their commitment. Ronaldo responded as follows when asked which players he recognizes as committed to football in the now-famous conversation with Piers Morgan:
“In Manchester United I can mention Dalot, he’s young, but very professional but I don’t doubt that he’s going to have longevity in football because he’s young, he’s smart, intelligent and he’s very professional.”
“I don’t think they don’t respect the more experienced players or the older players, but they live in a different era. I can say that for my kid that’s 12 years old, the mentality is not the same,” CR7 said.
“Their hunger [is different]. I think they have things more easily, everything’s easy, they don’t suffer – and they don’t care. Their hunger [is different]. I think they have things more easily, everything’s easy, they don’t suffer – and they don’t care.”
“They listen but this is why we have two ears, as you listen from one side and they go away from another side.”
