United manager Ferguson has been named the top flight's best boss in the past month after guiding the Red Devils to four wins out of four. The Old Trafford outfit did not concede a single goal in victories against Birmingham, Aston Villa, Newcastle and Reading to allow Ferguson to collect his 20th Manager of the Month award. Meanwhile, Ronaldo has impressed as United continue in their attempts to defend their Premier League crown to lead to the winger being named the Player of the Month. The Portuguese trickster, who joined United in 2003, hit his first Premier League hat-trick in the 6-0 victory against Newcastle. Ronaldo then went on to net his side's second in the 2-0 away win against Reading, before claiming both goals in United's victory against Portsmouth. The 23-year-old, who previously received the accolade in November and December 2006, is currently the league's leading goalscorer after firing 19 goals this season.
