"It's time to kill or be killed. [LNB]"Whoever loses will exit the competition and we don't want to lose, we don't want to get stuck along the way. It will be a difficult game, but I think that Manchester United have a better team, and we'll do our best to win it.[LNB]"They're a team we need to respect," he said. "They're a good side and first in Serie A so we need to be very careful. [LNB]"They're a team with very experienced players, but we also have our aces and great players. We have a more experienced team, we're the reigning champions. [LNB]"It will be a good game, a well-contested game, and the better team will win."[LNB]Ronaldo helped United lift the Champions League trophy last season as Ferguson's side overcame Premier League rivals Chelsea on penalties in Moscow.[LNB]EmotionThe gifted playmaker insists it is a moment he will never forget and he is eager to repeat the feat again.[LNB]He added: "I always had a great ambition to win the Champions League, because it isn't obtainable for every player. It was my first Champions League win, so the emotion was spectacular. [LNB]"I remember Edwin van der Sar saving Nicolas Anelka's penalty and for me it was like the earth stood still, it was a really brilliant sensation. Sometimes we can't control our emotions.[LNB]"It's every player's ambition to be a part of the Champions League, and they would all like to win it. I've had that privilege, and I hope to repeat that very soon."[LNB]
