The man with his speed, skills, accuracy and style has caught the minds of millions of people world wide. With dozens of records bagged, he is the emperor of present day football. Here are some quotations made by some legends about the CR7.
- "We have some great players at this club in my 20 years, he's up the best." - Sir Alex Ferguson

- "Ronaldo is better than George best and Dennis law, who were two brilliant and great players in the history of united." - Johan Cruyff
- In the time I've been playing with Ronnie, the one thing I've noticed about him is that he can't walk past his reflection without admiring it, even if we're about to play a game of football." - Wayne Rooney
- "The kid makes you sick. He looks the part, he walks the part, he is the part. He's six-foot something, fit as a flea, good looking - he's got to have something wrong with him. Hopefully he's hung like a hamster! That would make us all feel better! - Ian Holloway
- "For me he is the best player in the world. A machine. Incomparable." - Fernando Torres

- "When Ronaldo getts the ball, you can just leave him to it while he beats player after player." - Ryan Giggs
- "Ronaldo is not protected by anybody or because of anybody. Rivals see the body of an animal and they kick him. Bang! Bang! To get a yellow card they need to do that a lot. Bang! Another, no. A foul and then the first yellow, but they can't touch him after that because it would be a red." - Jose Mourinho

- "I remember the first time I saw him play. It was for a Sporting CP youth team. I told my assistant, 'There goes Van Basten's son.' Ronaldo had great technique. He stood out." - Jose Mourinho
