Cris does the double AGAIN

Get Your Rudebox!!
Cristiano Ronaldo did another awards double on Monday night after being named Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year and Players' Player of the Year on Monday night.

At the end-of-season awards dinner at Old Trafford, the 22-year-old claimed both major honours, the first voted for by over 100,000 fans, the second by his team-mates. It has been an incredible season for the Portuguese winger, who is now widely considered to be the best player in the world. And he has the silverware to prove it - he has claimed an astonishing 13 personal accolades this season.

Ronaldo, looking at the Sir Matt Busby award, joked: "That's bigger than Patrice [Evra]". He added that this season had been "a pleasure playing at this club and with these great players".

He was beaten to the Goal of the Season award, which deservedly went to Paul Scholes for his thunderous volley in off the bar against Aston Villa. Scholes, who was presented the award by team-mate Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, said: "The standard of goals this season has been brilliant, so I'm really pleased to get this award."
