Former Manchester United striker Bebe has said his game has similarities with that of Cristiano Ronaldo. Bebe, 25, joined United in 2010 -- a year on from Ronaldo having left for Real Madrid as one of the club's greatest ever players -- and he went on to make seven appearances for the Red Devils, scoring two goals. The Portuguese cost a reported £7 million from Vitoria de Guimaraes and had loan spells at Besiktas, Rio Ave and Pacos de Ferreira. Bebe then signed for Benfica from United in 2014 and is now on loan at La Liga side Rayo Vallecano. In an interview with Spanish newspaper AS, Bebe said when asked who his idol was: "[Didier] Drogba, but also Cristiano because he's Portuguese. "I have the same way of running, and the same shooting style, he's definitely a favourite." Bebe said he initially thought it was a "joke" when he heard United wanted to sign him and that it was "insane" being one of their players -- but insists he enjoyed the experience.
