He told The Sun: “Sharing a pitch with players of the calibre of Falcao and James Rodriguez was an honour.

“But I wasn't too fazed. It's my job. I've played with big players before and I've played against big players in the Premier League.

“Falcao's a lovely, lovely person. From the moment he saw me, he started speaking to me as if he had known me for years. That made me feel really comfortable straight away."
