Portuguese ace wants to bring titles to Old Trafford
Nani admits he is having his best season at Manchester United, but insists it means nothing without silverware at the end of it.
The Portugal winger, who arrived at the Premier League club in 2007, has played a key role in United’s campaign this term, scoring 10 goals and claiming 13 assists.
But the 24-year-old says he will only reflect on his individual achievements once the Red Devils, currently top of the league and still competing on three fronts, have brought trophies to Old Trafford.
Trophies
“It is my best season at United,” said Nani in the Daily Express.
“It is good to have that many goals and assists but the most important thing is to win the trophies with the team.
“When I have won the trophies I will look back at how I have contributed.”
Nani has inevitably been likened to compatriot and ex-United ace Cristiano Ronaldo during his time at the club.
But while the winger says he is friends with the Real Madrid star, he has shrugged off any comparisons.
“I don’t compare myself to Ronaldo or anyone else, I just think about myself and the club and what I can do for them,” he said.
“I know people liken me to Cristiano but I just want to be Nani, a good player who people enjoy watching.”
He added: “We are good friends. He spoke to me before the Marseille game and wished me good luck. He always tells me how well I am doing.”
Despite his prolific form this season, Nani says he is still working on his game in order to reach his full potential.
Improve
“I hope to improve much more,” he added.
“It is good for your confidence to know people are looking at you to win matches for the team. When you are on the pitch, it means you want the ball all the time because everything is going so well.
“I know, though, that I can do better. That is why I’m training hard every day and staying fit for every game.”
