• ALEX FERGUSON believes Cristiano Ronaldo will be red hot against Chelsea after being
  forgiven by the fans.
  

REDS RETURN ... Cristiano Ronaldo goes for goal on his comeback



The Manchester United ace came on as sub for his first appearance of the
season.


And the Old Trafford faithful gave him a rousing reception even though he
tried to quit the club for Real Madrid in the summer.




Boss Ferguson said: “The crowd reaction was important to Cristiano. It will
help him to realise what a great club he is at and how loyal those fans are
to him. He will take great encouragement from that.


“Cristiano has shown great loyalty in five years but has had a turbulent
summer when a lot was said.


“But we had a meeting in June in Portugal and the matter was over.


“Since then he has dedicated himself to getting fit and committing to the
club.”


Ronaldo has made a timely return from an ankle injury with United travelling
to title rivals Chelsea on Sunday.


Fergie added: “It would be a big ask for him to play from the start on Sunday.
But I will certainly have a lot more selection possibilities by then.”


Ronaldo failed to break the deadlock following his 61st-minute arrival as
holders United started their Champions League defence with a disappointing
draw against Villarreal.


Fergie insisted: “I thought we played good football at times.”
