The popular magazine and website, AskMen.com, made a targeted poll in the United Kingdom, for their U.K. readers to vote on who were the most influential men of 2011. Cristiano Ronaldo played in England for a 6 year period and is still a very respected person in the country. Ronaldo was voted the 3rd most influential man of 2011, only behind of David Guetta (2nd) and Prince William (1st). However, CR7 managed to beat names names such as Mark Zuckerberg (5th), Steve Jobs (6th), Sir Alex Ferguson (7th), Barack Obama (10th), Justin Bieber (11th), Brad Pitt (14th), Kayne West (15th), Lionel Messi (19th) and David Beckham (20th).

Surprisingly, José Mourinho name doesn't show up in our computed table, because the Portuguese coach only features in the 25th place, as well as the Spanish Pep Guardiola, ranked 35th. Cristiano Ronaldo's podium on this table, is just another proof that the Portuguese player is one of the most respected personalities in the United Kingdom. Ever since Ronaldo left Manchester United, there have been several rumors and suggestions pointing to a possible return from Cristiano Ronaldo to England, and these results we now have in hand revealed by "AskMen UK", just help supporting those hints.
On Ronaldo's AskMen voting page, the British magazine refers that Cristiano Ronaldo is the first player ever, since David Beckham, to establish as a brand and have such an impact and influence over people. Cristiano Ronaldo is also pointed as being the only football player in the World to have won the Golden boot award, in two different leagues (English Premier League and the Spanish "La Liga"). We'll end this story, by quoting AskMen in a way that probably describes and explains why many people insist on hating Cristiano Ronaldo and why the Portuguese player keeps being the target of so many envy around the world: "Women want him and men want to be him."
