Man Utd's Ronaldo: No problem with defenders

Manchester United ace Cristiano Ronaldo accepts he's a target for opposition defenders.

Ronaldo told the Mirror: "On the pitch I'm a target for defenders, so it's difficult to avoid certain things. I've never had any serious problems.

"I don't agree when people say that to stop United, you only need to stop Cristiano. I don't like it when people say that."

And the World Player of the Year is hungry for more accolades.

"I don't like to relax," he said. "I have to continue winning awards and trophies because I'm still young. I'm at a club that gives me a guarantee to win titles and trophies."
