Cristiano Ronaldo's stats under Ferguson, Mourinho, Ancelotti and other mangers compared

Cristiano Ronaldo really has made Europe his playground over the course of the last two decades.

The Portuguese superstar has taken the game to truly unprecedented heights and, despite his advancing years, shows no signs of slowing down.

Ronaldo first caught the eye in the colours of Sporting Lisbon before a certain Sir Alex Ferguson pounced to bring him to Manchester United.

The rest, as they say, is history. Ronaldo would go on to dominate the Premier League, winning his first Ballon d’Or during that initial – and quite ridiculous – Old Trafford spell.

He then made the seismic shift to Spain where his already heady numbers became simply stratospheric in the colours of Real Madrid.

Ronaldo plundered goals, assists, and trophies with frightening ease at the club, breaking record after record to become their greatest ever player.

He then gave Serie A a go, conquered it and has since returned to Old Trafford where, on an individual basis at least, Ronaldo has been very impressive indeed.

During his time traversing the continent, Ronaldo has played under a number of managers but under whose tutelage did he thrive the most?

Well, thanks to the gurus at TransferMarkt, we can just about answer that question.

The stand out moments come from his spells under the aforementioned Ferguson, Carlo Ancelotti, Jose Mourinho and Zinedine Zidane.

Under Ancelotti, in particular, his numbers are simply wild, registering a staggering 112 goals and 47 assists in just 101 games.

However, his numbers under Mourinho, considering how the Portuguese gaffer likes to play, are equally impressive, raking in 168 goals and 49 assists in 164 games.
