Fred admits a winning debut with Manchester United a fortnight ago was special.

The midfielder helped United to victory over Leicester City and was given a generous ovation upon his substitution.

“Everyone just told me to make the most of it, because playing in a stadium like Old Trafford is a big deal, especially for me, as it was my first United game there," he said.

“I was really happy with how things went. My team-mates were just chatting to me, encouraging me and telling me to make the most of what was an amazing occasion. It felt amazing when I came out onto the pitch, seeing all our fans all around the stadium, and when we came out of the tunnel everyone started cheering. That's something I'll never forget.

"I never want to forget how I felt that day, because making your debut at Old Trafford as well as beating a big team is just fantastic. I was really content with how it all went, and seeing the fans applauding me made me happy - it's something I'll never forget."
