Real Madrid's Ronaldo: Ferguson helped me out of Man Utd

Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo says Sir Alex Ferguson knew he couldn't keep him at Manchester United last summer.

Discussing his meeting with Ferguson after deciding it was time to leave Old Trafford, Ronaldo says he was upfront with his former manager.

He said: "The truth is that playing for Real was a dream. I told Ferguson this and that he should respect my opinion. He understood me and helped me out of United because I wanted something different."

Asked about his Mum talking to the Spanish papers while he was still a United player, Ronaldo smiled: "What am I going to tell my mother? She is an impulsive person and loves Real Madrid."

ok ive just got a simple message for ronaldo fans: GET OVER THE DYSENTERY-INFECTED (look it up), ARRSE-FACED RETARD YOU CALL RONALDO. HE IS ACTUALLY THE CLUB BIKE - EVERYBODY ON THE SQUAD GETS A RIDE!!!!!!!!!!!

People can say what they like about Man Utd and Sir Alex Ferguson. But the fact remains that Cristiano Ronaldo left our club as the current World Player of The Year. And the player himself outlines his former manager's contribution toward making him the sublime footballer he is today. These are all facts, hating on them isn't going to alter these facts.

simple as that, man u is nth without ronaldo, they start winning epl because of the rise of ronaldo, but before that they are just ordinary..lets see how they finish this season..
