Manchester United midfielder Nick Powell hopes for a fresh start at Hull City.

The midfielder would be open to staying at the KC Stadium if things go well and he does not fall out with the coaching staff, admitting with a smile it is "no secret" that he has not got on with some managers.

Steve Bruce clearly likes Powell, though, and joked it was "typical Nick" upon hearing he forgot that United were in Europa League action on Thursday.

"I completely forgot about until I went on FIFA online with some friends from back home," Powell said about the 2-1 loss to Midtjylland.

"They said 'did you see the United score?' and I was like 'why? who did they play?' Then I realised they had the Europa.

"To be fair, I was shocked that they lost 2-1. No offence to the team they played - I can't pronounce their name and I do not know who they are.

"I feel bad for the team considering the pressure they are under and how they must have felt during the game.

"I just think United are going through such a bad time that any little bad thing becomes a massive thing."
