CRISTIANO RONALDO stuck two fingers up at his critics and insisted he doesn't care if his mega move makes him a hate figure.
Many Manchester United fans say they are glad to see the back of the Portugal winger. But Ronaldo remains defiant after his world-record £80million switch to Real Madrid.
He said: "I love it when people jeer me. I love to see the hate in their eyes, to hear the insults. It doesn't bother me. It's true lots of people hate me but there are even more who love me and who support me. I feel bad only when I play badly. Fortunately, that happens rarely."
The winger, 24, grabbed heaps of silverware during his time at Old Trafford but added: "I still have a long way to go. I really want to re-write the history of football.
"I am aware I'm already among the best of the best but I want to continue to write many more beautiful pages."
In an interview which will appear in French magazine So Foot this month, Ronaldo claims he is capable of eclipsing even the classiest of rivals, like Barcelona wizard Lionel Messi.
Ronaldo added: "I have nothing to envy Lionel for. I don't compare myself to others. I am Cristiano Ronaldo - and I can win more medals than anybody else. I don't like to relax. The fans want to see a great Cristiano Ronaldo so I try to never disappoint."
Ronaldo could return to Old Trafford in next season's Champions League group stages. Real's modest recent record in the competition sees them provisionally seeded as only the ELEVENTH-BEST side in Europe.
But Real president Florentino Perez will aim for an instant turn-around in fortunes, especially as next year's final is at the Bernabeu.
