Goal-hungry Ronaldo aims to hit top form

CRISTIANO RONALDO has set himself a target of scoring in every remaining game for Manchester United this season and claimed he is about to hit peak form just at the most crucial stage of his team’s campaign both at home and in Europe.

Ronaldo, who currently has 23 goals, wants to finish the season with 30 and believes injury and off-field problems that dogged the early part of his season are now well and truly behind him.

It was a minor miracle, of course, that Ronaldo pulled on a red shirt at all this season after a summer of constant transfer speculation linking him with a move to Real Madrid. But, after a shaky start on his return from an ankle injury, he has looked back to his rampaging best in recent matches, as highlighted by his goal-of-the-season contender against Porto in the Champions League.
