Under Ferguson, who Ronaldo labels 'The Master,' the 23-year-old has added deadly finishing to his repertoire of skills and tricks.
"I am a great professional thanks to him," Ronaldo said in an interview with France Football magazine. "It's him who took me from Sporting and brought me to Manchester.
"He is a great man. A great manager. His record of achievements speaks for itself. Most important is his personality - I love working with him.
"My concentration has changed. I have become a winner. Here, you always have to win and I know the pressure of winning matches, trophies.
"And it is here, with Alex Ferguson, that I started to believe I could win the Ballon d’Or."
