RONALDO – ‘KICK ME'

Last updated : 27 February 2004 By Editor
"When defenders think there is a player capable of creating
danger, they try to stop him no matter what, and often that
means fouling them," said Ronaldo. "When defenders get so
aggressive, it just proves that they're worried about player
because he's quick and skilful."

Ronaldo is still adapting to the change in lifestyle that
came with moving to Manchester United:

"Coming to Manchester United meant a big change to my life.
The climate, the food and, of course, on a football level.
The game is a lot faster in England and far more physical,
so it's necessary to adapt your game.

"I've evolved a lot since I've been at United and working
alongside such experienced players can only help my game."
