Manchester United's goalscoring sensation Cristiano Ronaldo wants to write his name in the Old Trafford history books.The Portugal star broke George Best's record of goals for a United winger with his 32nd and 33rd of the season in Wednesday night's 2-0 victory over Bolton.
Ronaldo is in the form of his life and although he is already approaching legendary status with the club's fans, the 23-year-old believes he still has a way to go before his name can sit comfortably alongside the likes of Best, Eric Cantona and Sir Bobby Charlton.
"I am in great form and I want to keep going. I want to be part of the story of this club and if I keep going like that then why not?" he said.
Ronaldo now has scored 33 goals in all competitions this season but it was the passing of Best's mark which grabbed the headlines.
However, the Portuguese felt he was not worthy of being spoken about in similar terms to the late Northern Ireland international.
"It is fantastic for me (to break the record)," he added.
"I don't like to say I broke the record of George Best. I have had the opportunity to see a few tapes and he was a magnificent player."
The win over Bolton took United three points clear of nearest rivals Arsenal at the top of the Premier League.
But with matches still to come against the Gunners and Chelsea - who are just five points behind - and with arch-enemies Liverpool visitors to Old Trafford on Sunday, Ronaldo knows the title race is far from over.
"We don't have a big advantage and we need to think about results but we are playing fantastically and we are in good form," he told MUTV.
"We are three in front of Arsenal and five of Chelsea and we have to keep going like that but we are in a good moment."
Another United great has been welcomed back to Old Trafford in an official capacity, with former captain Bryan Robson appointed as club ambassador on an initial 12-month period.
The ex-England midfielder will help the Red Devils promote their commercial and charitable arms, working alongside United director Charlton.
"I'm delighted to have the chance to work alongside Sir Bobby and to be such a central part of Manchester United's future," said Robson.
"Since signing for the club in 1981, it has always been special to me. I enjoyed the happiest and most memorable times of my career at Old Trafford and it will be great to play a role in making the club even more successful."
United's chief executive David Gill added: "Bryan was the outstanding player of his generation and he remains close to the hearts of everyone that saw him play.
"His relationship with United supporters is second to none and I look forward to working with him for the benefit of the club, the team and the fans."
