He told Sky Sports: "I said what I felt in that moment, that I'm here to win. Manchester [United] is synonymous with winning things, I'm not here for holidays.

"So what I said is that I see a huge potential in this team, with very young players, very [high] potential players and I'm here to win.

"And I'm here to help the team to build up new stuff, so I said more stuff but I don't remember very well.

"But it was good, [it was] a good speech.

"I didn't sing because I told them that I sang a few years ago... many years ago but it was good.

"The boys understood me, it was a good speech so I was happy that night."
