"It's nice to be here and I'm looking forward to getting underway.
"I found out I was starting this morning. I've been working hard in training so it's nice to get the nod.
"I'd like to think it's because I've been chipping away and working hard, day in day out, in the chances I've had. So let's see.

I'll make sure I'm on to the boys in there and they'll know what it means. "They [United] will come out of the traps and have a real point to prove. They should never be on one point, they've got a great manager there and I'm sure results will pick up for them soon. Let's hope it's not tonight."
