Blackett determined to keep Man Utd place

Manchester United defender Tyler Blackett retains hope of maintaining his first team place.

Defensive rival Marcos Rojo is now clear to make his United debut on Sunday against QPR.

Blackett told the Manchester Evening News: "I know I'm not going to play in every match but I'd like to think I will get more games and opportunities to do well and be around the first team.

"I'd like to be able to say next summer the team has performed well and I have played maybe 10-15 games. I want to establish myself at this level and prove to myself that I can play here."
