“I wanted to add goals this season, and I started and scored, so hopefully now I can carry on throughout the rest of the Europa League.
“When you are not in the right mental state, football takes your mind away from everything. I love playing football, enjoy football and, of course, Man Utd is in my blood. I love playing for the club.”
