Cristiano Ronaldo Interview Highlights

Your English now is very good. Well, I try my best.

But when you first came, I guess it wasn't as good.

And certainly, I have spoken all my life,

but I find it hard to understand Alex Ferguson sometimes.

So that must have been difficult for you at first.

But I still don't understand him.

Are you feeling more and more confident with each game? I don't understand.

Are you confident?

I don't understand, sorry.

Gary, he's looking confident anyway, Gary.

As you say, it's Cristiano Ronaldo and it's controversy once again.

Why is it always the case with you?

I don't know why.

It's every time against Middlesbrough.

For me, it's a penalty.

Maybe someone doesn't like me,

but because maybe I'm too good.

What did you say to him, though?

He used to be, after the shower, he used to be combing their heads with shit comb,

he used to have, remember? Doing the shit hair.

And he used to say, look at the wrong fucking hair. No bum. No bum.

He used to go to a slot machine.

Well, I'm looking at both and thinking,

your left hand is probably worth more than I have in my life.

No, no, no. And I'm not a poor man, Cristiano, but this arm is...

It's not that much. I mean, just watch and learn.

When they see Cristiano,

when they see the right, they say,

wow, Cristiano, but sometimes it's fake. But they don't...

They don't realise because I'm Cristiano, nobody believe that it's fake.

Who's the best player in the world ever?

For me, the best player in the world ever,

Diego Maradona. Me.

For me, Maradona.

Who did you expect more? You too?

Well, it's the first game of the season.

It's normal, that tension,

but we'll probably be better in the first game of the league.

In the first game of the league. Well, let's see if Cristiano...

We really wanted to show our country

that we could contribute something

on the pitch that could be shown outside, for the fans.

I don't know what to say.

I'm a top journalist.

I'm here in Canada to do an interview with Cristiano Ronaldo for Sky Sports.

Lionel Messi is a better player than you.

Maybe I'm a better reporter than him.

For example, you're from Argentina.

Yesterday, on the flight, one of the players was Argentinian.

I knew he was Argentinian because of the way he looked at me.

I said, are you sure you're Argentinian?

He said, how do you know? The way you looked at me. I said, how did I look at you?

You looked at me and your eyes were wide open.

That means you don't like Cristiano.

He said that.

But then, as a joke, my wife is Argentinian.

Obviously, I have to have a special affection for Argentinians from Buenos Aires.

That's why everything is fine. Nothing happens.
