Donaldson broke his leg playing for Crewe at Bournemouth in August

Clayton Donaldson has revealed he has been watching a DVD of the Brazil striker Ronaldo to inspire himself.

"He was a wonderful player and I've always tried to copy his style and some of his skills," Donaldson told BBC Radio Stoke.

"I put it on the coach last week and some of the people liked it so much that they've asked for copies of it."

The Crewe striker, 25, made his comeback after two months out of action against Notts County on Saturday.

"Ever since I was young, I've always watched skilful players," added Donaldson.

"But Ronaldo's got pace, power and trickery. If you believe you have that too, it gives you the confidence that you can do the same."
