Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo believes his side can lift the Champions League at Wembley in May, but warned Manchester United and Barcelona are hot contenders. The Portuguese has also taken a bash at Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli."For me the favourites are Real Madrid, Barcelona and Manchester United," he told La Gazzetta dello Sport.
"Inter? I know Leonardo well, he is a spectacular person, but I don't think Inter will get to the final."
Ronaldo, who fine-tuned his football as a youngster in the Premier League, was asked what he thought of Manchester City's Mario Balotelli, who has never been shy of controversy.
"Balotelli? He is a great player but he must talk less and think about playing more. In England you learn if you listen," he said.
"In the Premier League, if you know how to listen and want to learn, you can become a great player. I hope he does it.
"But today he puts too many other things in front of his profession and that isn't alright."
