3. Berbatov
Before Cristiano Ronaldo moved to Real Madrid, Berbatov only spent a complete season at Manchester United. However, one year is enough time for Cristiano to impress the Bulgarians.

Berbatov said: "Training with him is like a war, because he just wants to win everything, including those little games we play."
Berbatov added that Cristiano Ronaldo always arrives at the gym on time and will stay for extra training.
He added: "When you came to train, he was already in the gym. Then, he will stay after training to do extra work, then go swimming and then go back to the gym. He is determined to be the best. "
2. Scholes
Scholes is a legend of Manchester United. He went through many battles at the club. It can be said that Scholes witnessed many young players coming to the club. But at Old Trafford, few people can get close to Cristiano Ronaldo.

1, Evra
Evra is famous for his outspoken personality after retiring, but even he has to bear C Ronaldo's hard-core fitness program.
If anyone asks Evra, he will advise them to avoid Cristiano Ronaldo's lunch invitation, because it is another kind of training. In an interview on 20 19, Evra recalled that Cristiano Ronaldo's lunch invitation turned into an intense training.
Evra wanted to have a big meal after lunch, but he got more football training. He said, "As soon as he finished playing, he stood up, started to get the ball and did some tricks. Then he said,' Let's do some double ball control.' "Followed by swimming and sauna."
This made Evra very confused. He was not sure whether Cristiano Ronaldo invited him to lunch. He added, "So that's why when Cristiano invited you to his house, I suggested that no one should go, just say no, because this guy, he is a machine, and he doesn't want to stop training."
