Manchester United superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has spoken of what an honour it was to captain his side during the 2-0 win over Bolton last night.
The Portuguese winger was entrusted the armband due to the unavailability of several senior players, and promptly marked the distinction by scoring yet another brace to take his tally to 33, and thus surpassing George Best’s club record for goals in a season for a winger.
It is always good to be captain on this massive club. For me it is an honour and a pleasure. But my responsibilities are still the same. I do not change my game or personality just because I am captain. It was a marvellous night for me,” Ronaldo enthused.
“I am very proud. When you work and the goals come, it is great for me,” he continued.
“It is not just about my work and my goals, my team-mates help me a lot in my career. At the moment I feel very good about my form.
“The team is the most important thing. When you win and when you score it is great. I feel very happy.”
