Ronaldo had a remarkable 2014, even by the Portuguese superstar's standards, but he believes 2015 can be even better.
'It
would be a dream if 2015 was like 2014 or even better,' Ronaldo said in
an interview published in sports daily A.S on Saturday.
If Cristiano Ronaldo has
his way, and he so often does, this scene of the overwhelming favourite
to win the Ballon d'Or relaxing by the pool on a luxury yacht off Dubai
is the calm before the storm.
A second
Champions League was among Ronaldo's four titles and he scored an
incredible 51 goals in 47 appearances, setting a record of 17 goals for
one edition of of Europe's elite club competition along the way as Real
secured a record-extending 10th continental crown and the King's Cup.
Since
August 2014 he's amassed 34 goals in 27 matches in all competitions,
with 25 of those in 14 La Liga matches a Spanish record that puts him on
course to smash Lionel Messi's benchmark of 50 in the Spanish domestic
competition in 2011-12.
But
no, in Ronaldo's world - which at the moment means soaking up sunshine
in the Middle East during La Liga's winter break - there is room for
improvement. And it's an achievable goal, he says.
'It is possible to do it because Madrid is always a candidate to win the competitions it is playing in,' added the 29-year-old.
'We have a team spirit that can help us win the most titles possible and we will fight to the death to get them.'
Ronaldo
attributed much of Real's recent success to the arrival of coach Carlo
Ancelotti, who replaced the divisive Jose Mourinho at the end of the
2012-13 season.
