Cristiano Ronaldo Looking For European Glory

Cristiano Ronaldo believes that Real Madrid can lift the Champions League title this season.

The £80 million player made the switch to the Spanish giants last summer but his side crashed out of the tournament early in 2009/10 season.

But the former Manchester United player that this season, under new manager Jose Mourinho, that they can win the title once again.

Speaking to Real Madrid's official; website he said: "This club, as always, has the ambition to win the Champions League. I have a special feeling about this season.

"We can win, but we cannot put pressure on ourselves. We have all the necessary ingredients to win the competition, but we have to take one step at a time.

"We are happy with our game on Saturday [1-0 win over Osasuna]. Our goal was to win the match and take three points. We can play better and score more goals. I'm sure we'll do better, we'll grow more confident and we'll win.

"We are going to win this year. I have a feeling we will. I am ambitious and I want to win. [Jose] Mourinho is the best coach in the world and I'm sure we will win and create a spectacle.

"At times it isn't possible to play well and be spectacular. It's better for the fans to help us and motivate us to play well. Our supporters have fun when the team plays well and scores goals, but we can't thrill them with brilliance all the time.

"It is on occasion convenient for fans to thrill players as well. All of us at the stadium want what's best for Real Madrid and, together, we can make this a feared team at home."

Real Madrid face Ajax Amsterdam in the first of the group matches tonight.
