i dont think soo....
fergie likes to keep people to their preffered position as much as possible and fully develop their potential from there
maybe if he had signed for arsenal wenger might have tried to turn him into a cr7 style play, as wenger likes to change players positions, e.g. henry - winger to striker, walcott - attacker to winger
but i do think in a few years wen rafael is playing there as 1st team him and cr7 will be UNSTOPPABLE down the right
