Cristiano Ronaldo: Gary Neville helped Man Utd legend in his 1st English interview

Cristiano Ronaldo made the bold decision to move from Sporting Lisbon to Manchester United in 2003.

The Portuguese was just 18 years old at the time but, despite being so young, he agreed to a move.

Ronaldo featured heavily in the 2003/04 season, scoring six times in 40 matches.

Ronaldo is then asked to speak but, after a few sentences, stumbles when asked whether he is feeling 'confident'.

Neville then passes Ronaldo his bottle of champagne before raving about the youngster.

Nearly 18 years on and Ronaldo has come a long way since then.

He had never heard the word 'confidence' in 2004. He defines the word
