A biography for Scott McTominayhasn’t been written yet.
“There is always speculation and different things surrounding every player at Manchester United. You have to perform to stay at this club, I've known that since I've been a young boy watching lots of senior pros come through and academy players as well.”
“I've always had some notes that I've taken, bits a manager has said or relayed, so I'd always write that stuff down and it's always there as a reminder, so you build up a bank of what to do every single game.”
“It takes time for a new manager coming in. It's not all of a sudden just going to click straight into place.”
“No matter the situation in life you, never give up, never throw the towel in.”
“You can't just go into games hoping to do well. You must go in believing.”
“The boss. Sir Alex. Whenever we saw him in the canteen he'd always say: 'Are you behaving yourself?' And you'd just be quiet. You never know what to say, especially with him being from Scotland.”
“Manchester United has been my life since the age of five and playing for the club I've always supported is all I've ever wanted to do.”
“Even if you're like Michael Carrick and you've won everything, you still have that hunger and want to impress everybody in every training session.”
“The only opinions that matter are those from your manager, family and teammates, in my opinion.”
“Everyone gets criticised, that's the world we live in.”
“Obviously nerves are only natural. It's how you deal with those nerves and it's how you put that on a football pitch.”
“You get what you put into football.”
“I've always had a love of the gym. I like to see marginal gains and I'm competitive in there. The same goes for diet and sleep - I'd say I'm disciplined and that's something I take pride in.”
“I don't read too much into what gets said online, or in the press, or different things like that.”
“I do quite like verbal sparring with opponents.”
“I'm not going to spit my dummy out and cry over something Roy Keane says.”
“David De Gea's always got his heavy rock on in the changing rooms and it's not my cup of tea.”
“Just because someone's played more games than you, it doesn't mean they're always going to get in ahead of you.”
“It's so important, if you don't have competition for places people take their foot off the peddle and relax.”
“It's a tremendous honour to come away with the Scotland national team.”
