The Portuguese winger had an awful afternoon at the
Britannia Stadium with Manchester United looking much stronger
after he was subbed off.
Stoke fans taunted him with chants of 'You'll never be
Ronaldo' and he was hooked by boss Alex Ferguson early in the
second half. Then his replacement Ryan Giggs inspired a 2-0
win.
Nani will call Ronaldo before Wednesday's home clash
with Wolfsburg and said: "Cristiano and I talk a lot. We speak
about my own game and he gives me confidence to go out and
perform."
Ronaldo said: "Nani is an excellent player and I am
sure that in a few years he will be among the best players in the
world."
