The showdown in the Champions League between Manchester Untied
and Inter is rapidly approaching, with the first-leg set to take
place on February 24.
Earlier this year, Inter boss Jose Mourinho claimed he believes
that Red Devils winger, Cristiano Ronaldo, was overrated and that
Nerazzurri striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic was the better player.
Ronaldo won the Champions League last season with Manchester United
and also was awarded the Ballon d'Or.
"I respect the opinion of everyone, but the trophies that count are
at my house," responded the Portuguese player in an interview with
RaiSport.
"Inter are a strong team, with some great players, but we are
better than them and I strongly believe we can beat them.
Eliminating them will bring us one step closer to the final."
Ronaldo also commented on international teammate Ricardo Quaresma,
who did not succeed in his first six months at Inter under 'The
Special One' and is now on loan to Chelsea.
"Ricardo is a major talent and it's a sin he did not have the time
to demonstrate his value," claimed the 24-year-old. "It is probably
due to the fact he was bought for a lot of money and there was too
much pressure in Italy; it won't be easy for him [to recover]
now."
Cristiano Ronaldo recently celebrated his 24th birthday on February
5.
