00:00So when he played, obviously, at United with us, he was getting to a point 2006-08 where he was,
00:05I think when he left us, he was the best in the world at that point, probably with Messi.
00:09He was absolutely sensational and obviously kicks on.
00:12I mean, he was massively driven, wanted to be the best player in the world.
00:15Is that your experience of him when you were in the dressing room with him at Madrid?
00:18Yeah, the driven part, yeah.
00:20I think when I came, obviously watching him when I played in the Premier League and when I was a
00:24bit younger,
00:25he was definitely more of a flair player and a winger.
00:30As I came to Madrid, I felt like he just started that transition to becoming a goal scorer
00:36where he realised that if I get goals and I don't have to do so much,
00:41I'm going to get probably even more plaudits and credits.
00:44So he was still doing the dribbling and stuff, but as he got older, just transitioned more into it.
00:49And I think just as I came, he was, first two, three seasons,
00:53he was still probably similar to the United-Christian and then transitioned into that,
00:57like, right, I don't need to come back so much.
01:00I can position myself better for counter-attacks.
01:04And yeah, just how driven he was in training, in games, just to score goals.
01:09Literally, all he wanted to do was score goals.
01:11And ultimately, that's why he's got so many records.
01:14Was he demanding the dressing room?
01:15Who was the big leader in that dressing room?
01:18Obviously, Ramos was in there, wasn't he?
01:19Yeah, I'd say Ramos was by far the biggest leader.
01:25Cristiano had his ego and was a leader in his own right from what a player he is.
01:30But in terms of the leader of the team, it was, yeah, clearly Ramos.
01:33What was it?
01:33What was it?
