Live Bar May 19 News Former Manchester United star Nani recalled his and Ronaldo's past in Manchester United and the Portuguese national team in an interview with the Manchester United podcast, Nani said that when he first joined Manchester United, he lived with Anderson in Ronaldo's home, and Ronaldo will challenge him at any time, they were very close when they first met with the national team, and Nani also said that his most important, beautiful and greatest moments were spent in Manchester United.
Nani had met Cristiano Ronaldo before joining Manchester United from Portuguese sports, so it made perfect sense for Nani and his compatriots and friends to get along. Cristiano Ronaldo showed his generous side, and after Brazil player Anderson moved from Porto to Manchester United that summer, he asked Anderson to live with him temporarily.
Nani smiled and said that the experience of living with Cristiano Ronaldo brought them many happy memories. However, Cristiano Ronaldo is a very competitive player, and he has put his own test on Anderson.
"Anderson played for Porto for almost a year, so I didn't know much about him at the time. I know he's a great player because he made a difference in the league as soon as he arrived at Porto. So I knew who he was, but we weren't friends at the time. ”
"Anderson and I became friends very quickly after we met at Manchester United. We stayed with Cristiano for a month and it was a very interesting month. We constantly challenge ourselves. We had some nice and fun moments and helped each other. So it wasn't hard for me and Anderson when we first arrived at Manchester United. ”
"Cristiano Ronaldo is very competitive. As long as you stay in his house for a day, he is ready to challenge you. His home has a swimming pool, tennis court and table tennis table. Sometimes, this kind of battle is just to see who is telling the truth, or who is right in something. ”
"The only time we don't fight is at night, we'll sit on the couch and chat, and Ronaldo will go to bed. We know this because when we wake up, Anderson and I both feel tired. Ronaldo had gotten up two hours earlier, looked at the news and said, 'Okay, let's go.' ’”
"Cristiano was the only guy who had a car at the time, at the beginning, so we had to be ready to go with him. It was a very good memory. Nani said.
Nani first met Cristiano Ronaldo when he was playing for the Portuguese national team, when Nani was learning from his senior teammates in the national team.
"My first national team competition was when I was playing for Sport Portugal and I think it was in the second season of my career. That's fantastic because I've had the opportunity to meet so many great players, some players that I admired since I was a kid. As a child, I was a fan of Deco, Maniche, Costinha and Boa-Motte. They helped me at first, then Ronaldo. ”
"Cristiano Ronaldo is young but very strong and we are looking forward to his performance. We quickly became intimate because people said our style was similar. We were together on the first day after I came to the national team, and that was it, and even more so when I moved to Manchester United. ”
When Nani joined Manchester United in 2007, Ronaldo was already a superstar of Manchester United, and inevitably, fans began to compare Nani and Cristiano Ronaldo. Asked if he liked such a comparison, Nani hinted it was a test, but he remained optimistic about his Manchester United career.
Nani explained: "I'm not going to let this affect me because my attention is not on the comparison with Cristiano Ronaldo, but when I started taking on more responsibility at Manchester United, when Cristiano Ronaldo left, it was a bit difficult at first. People always compare you to Cristiano Ronaldo, it looks like you need to prove yourself every time, and you have to perform as well as Ronaldo, even if you're a different player. ”
"When you perform up to their expectations, all the fans love you because they see something different in you. They like the difference, but they create in their minds what they want, like having one player become another Ronaldo, or the new Cristiano. In those moments, it was a little difficult for me, but very quickly, I learned how to protect myself and not pay attention to these things. ”
"I had a wonderful time in Manchester. I enjoyed my career there. I was a bit injured in the middle of my Manchester United career and there were times when I couldn't play the stable performance I wanted. But I'm still happy with everything I've done at Manchester United, including my team-mates, coaches and all the staff I've met at this great club. ”
"For me, the most important, the best and greatest moments were spent at Manchester United. My memories are all good scenes, not bad moments. I don't need them, so I'm happy for one of the best moments of my life. I know people still know me, like me, and talk about everything I did there. So why not think in the bright light? ”
"I am content to love football, enjoy my game and still have dreams. I still have dreams. I want to be better, better, better. I know I might not be better, but I put this thought in my head in order to keep it at the same level as possible. ”
"You know, I'll always be Nani for everyone."
