Cris : United are more than Ronaldo and Rooney

CRISTIANO Ronaldo insists Manchester United are much more than a two-man team.

The double footballer of the year scored his 19th goal of the season against Aston Villa, while Wayne Rooney came off the bench to grab his 10th and turn the match on its head.

"Manchester United is not just about one or two players," he said. "Everyone is important.

"I am having a good season and scoring lots of goals but it would be great if Wayne could get the same number, or even more. I would be happy if that happened, and that would also be true for Carlos and Louis as well."

Ronaldo's incredible scoring rate has helped United reach the knockout stages of the Champions League, the fourth round of the FA Cup and seen them climb to second in the league.

And he is confident they can do more than just retain their Premier League title this term.

"I believe we can do better this year," he said. "We have a good squad, with a fantastic group of players.

"We have a good chance of winning all the competitions, so why not think about doing that?"
