Man Utd defender Rojo insists he can handle centre-half

Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo insists he can handle being the club's No1 fit centre-half.

Rojo, whose £16 million summer move from Sporting Lisbon was initially delayed because of work permits caused by an ongoing dispute in Argentina involving his family and neighbours, is happy to take on the responsibility in the middle.

"The coach knows I'm very happy to play left or central," he stressed.
