Default Ronaldo Interview 10/04/08

Got this interview from the RED VIEW (the Man United email newsletter) in my email with Cristiano Ronaldo:

Quote:
RONALDO TAKES AIM AT TWO TROPHIES

United wing wizard explains why he'd gladly swap personal awards for team glory...


Are you pleased with your form this season?

I try to improve and this season has been even better than the last. People say I need to perform better in big games; I respect that opinion, but I don’t feel I need to prove anything to anyone. I’m pleased with my progress, but I believe this United squad is the best I’ve been involved in. It’s more consistent and more mature.


In recent seasons you bet Sir Alex you’d score 15 goals; now you have 36...?

That’s true! I’m happy with the improvement. I’m a better player now than I was a year ago and definitely better than when I first came here. I hope that continues. Why have I scored more goals this season? It’s hard to say, I’ve just had more chances.


Do you have a favourite goal from this season?

I enjoyed my header against Roma away. That was very satisfying. But I like the free kicks against Portsmouth, Bolton and Sunderland. It’s hard to pick one.


Were you proud to beat George Best’s 32 goals in a season from midfield?

I don’t really want to break anybody’s record – I feel bad! I’ve seen tapes of George Best playing and he was absolutely fantastic. It’s a wonderful record to hold.


You’re tipped to win numerous Player of the Year awards again this year…?

It’s nice to be recognised, but if I had the choice of winning, say, the Champions League or the Golden Boot, I’d pick the Champions League every time.

Luckily for Ronaldo, he's going to win both the Golden Boot and the Champions League and the Premier League. Undeniable and unstoppable.

I thought he said he couldn't remember it?

I'm sure he's seen it on replay maybe a hundred million times to "refresh" his memory.

Based on the impact of the goal alone (CL quarter-final game away goal) and the mastery of the header, I have to agree with him. Many of his doubters and even fellow United fans have doubted his ability to play in the "big" games and he silenced all those critics with that wonderful header.
