Manchester United Dugout

Finally, Cristiano Ronaldo made it clear that he will remain with Manchester United this season.

Real Madrid have been trying to lure Ronaldo to Spain since the summer. Real Madrid coach Bernd Schuster believes it is a "shame" that Ronaldo has decided to stay in England.

Ronaldo wanted some new challenges after he had won all major trophies and individual awards. He was planning for a move to Spain, Real to be precise; close to his home to look after his mother.

Ronaldo has said that Sir Alex's human touch was what made him stay at Old Trafford. This is the reason why Fergie has been one of the best managers in the football world. He understands the needs of the player at the right time and makes them into reality.
