“You train hard all week, and in your downtime, you can relax with your friends and have fun.”

“I enjoy playing for Man United, and my heart is at Man United.”

“I think confidence plays a massive part. If you go into a game confident, you will try things, and they will come off.”

“There's always pressure on people's shoulders when it comes to Man United, and it's how you deal with the pressure.”

“I just want to assist and score goals to help the team.”

“I like to body pop.”

“Man United is a club where we always want to win and be first. If second is the spot we have to take, then we'll take it as long as we're up there and winning games. But our main priority is to be first all the time.”

“The first few seasons, I was just getting used to the Premier League.”

“You've got to do the job on the pitch. First and foremost, I put in 100 percent, and I don't think anyone can really complain after that.”

“I first realised I was good at football when I started getting scouted by United, Liverpool, Everton; clubs like that had a lot of interest at an early age, and you kind of know then you're on the right path. I was about six years old and had to sign a contract at nine.”

“I'm the type of guy that's always having a joke, messing around, but when it comes to the serious stuff, you know, your head's on the game.”

“When you score a goal, it boosts yourself and the team as well.”

“I had a little ladybird ball in the back garden; I think I was about one. I started off early.”

“Winning trophies is the main thing: that's why you play for Man United.”

“I was at a local club, Penketh United, and Mike Glennie, a Manchester United scout, came to watch me. He spoke to my grandad and offered me trials, but there was also interest from Liverpool, and I had to pick - I was only young, but obviously my heart was with United at the time.”

“I think United always had a plan for me. They nurtured me.”

“I've always liked the No.10 position. You can get on the ball a lot more and attempt to dictate the play a lot more.”

“When you get older, you realise it's all about winning games and winning trophies.”

“You've got to be a role model to the younger generation who look up to you, but it's always good to have fun. That's what the goal celebrations are about, really.”

“Once you're on the pitch and you've put the shirt on, it's then down to you to perform and play well.”
