Cristiano Ronaldo has revealed the songs and cheers from the Manchester United faithful made him a tad nervous ahead of his second debut for the club against Newcastle United.
Despite being nervous, Cristiano Ronaldo was bewildered by the reception he received from Manchester United fans before their resounding 4-1 win over the Magpies. Speaking about the crowd at Old Trafford, Cristiano Ronaldo said:
“When I started the game I was so nervous, I swear. It is normally because I did not expect that they would sing my name all game. The reception is incredible but I am here to win games and help the team.”
It is worth noting that this is the second time a packed Old Trafford has welcomed one of their new signings. Manchester United fans welcomed Raphael Varane with huge cheers before their opening game against Leeds United.
However, Cristiano Ronaldo's reception was something special. The crowd were chanting his name even before kick-off, which even the five-time Ballon d'Or winner was not expecting.
Cristiano Ronaldo has also said he has arrived at Manchester United to help them win games and take them back to competing for big trophies.

Liverpool will also have a chance to leap ahead of the Red Devils if they win their respective game against Leeds United by a huge margin.
