Scott McTominay

“Obviously I want to be a goal-scoring midfielder as well.”

“I spoke to my dad and my girlfriend about not enjoying football, or not enjoying it as much as I should do. I am in a pretty privileged position and it was about reflecting on that, realising where I am and not taking it for granted. My career could be over in a heartbeat.”

“I think that's the way it should be, especially when you play for a club like Man United. We all have to act accordingly and be professional in terms of everything we do.”

“I'll probably sway towards Van Persie, but Van Nistelrooy is an absolute legend as well.”

“If you can help your players improve, the results will follow for sure.”

“Social media criticism: you only see it how much you want see it.”

“It's so important for you to get off and running for your football club.”

“It honestly is a dream come true for me to be playing in the first team, and playing against teams like Real Madrid.”

“We need to concentrate on what's happening on the pitch. It's self-pride when we're on the pitch. We don't need to worry about who's saying what.”

“Ever since I was in school I was squinting a lot, not being able to see things as well as I should have been able to. I had to wear glasses in school - should have worn them more than I did - and then I got contacts at 15.”

“Whatever the manager asks you to do, you do.”

“I feel like the prime years in football are - it depends on how you look after yourself - but from 26 to 32, in my opinion anyway.”

“Whenever my career is done, I'll look back on this stage of my career with Manchester United. I've been here since I was five years old - with great gratitude.”

“We used to go up and see my grandparents in Helensburgh all the time and I still do to this day. It's a place I hold heavy in my heart and obviously I want to do well for Scotland.”

“If you want to be a top, top player, you have to play in pressured environments in these games. Throughout my career I want to be playing in the Premier League so that's the most important thing for me, to get as many of these games as I possibly can and hopefully push into the first-team.”

“You can't read too much or if there's good articles about you, bad articles about you, you can't dive into them with too much detail, because you have to have a thick skin in football, as you see with what's been going on with the racial abuse.”

“I had to work exceptionally hard to put on muscle.”

“I could be 35 years old, move to a new football team and still wouldn't be established.”

“You can't please everybody, and you never will.”

“Whenever the manager speaks to you, you've obviously got to listen and take it all on board.”
