Ferguson to C Ronaldo: Don't Make a Real Error
(Soccer365.com) Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has warned Cristiano Ronaldo that joining Real Madrid would be "the worst thing he could do".
The Red Devils boss feels the 23-year-old needs to stay at Old Trafford if he is to develop himself into one of the world's greatest footballers.
However, the Portuguese winger has refused to commit his future to United, and Madrid have continued their pursuit of the winger, despite being reported to FIFA by the Premier League and European champions.
Ferguson remains clearly unhappy about the situation and for the second time on the South African tour found himself fielding questions about a player who scored 42 goals last season.
He said: "I have a responsibility for all my players and their futures are a big concern for a coach.
"If you were asking advice and it was your son, you'd give him the best advice possible on his career.
"I honestly believe that could be the worst thing he could do; going to Real Madrid.
"He's 23 years old and he's at a fantastic football club. It's the best for him."

Ronaldo is bein a stuck up little prince! You should never move if you got it good somewhere. You just won ur league and now ur thinkin about leavin!?! If he gets traded the guys that play for Madrid are gonna show ronaldo what he's coming to. He's gonna have a hard time over in Spain because their so much better than English players. One he gets over there everyone is gonna look at him and say " look at this hotshot, he thinks he's gonna be a superstar!".
