England have gone out to Portugal on penalties in the last two major tournaments, and Ronaldo himself was the 'enemy number one' for The Three Lions in the second of them.

The winger got Manchester United team-mate Wayne Rooney sent off, following which he was jeered all over England for the next six months.

However, the Portuguese insists he wants England to qualify, and wants to face them again.

"I want England to qualify for Euro 2008," he said.

"I want England and Portugal to be there because it would be for the good of the game and every fan wants the big teams at major tournaments.

"But most of all, I would want to play England again because it would be sensational after the spectacle at the last World Cup.

"The story with Rooney in the World Cup is forgotten.

"We are good friends, but I insist that I would never change my attitude.

"I would always do anything for Portugal when I play a game for my country."
