Man Utd fullback Fabio: Anderson totally bonkers

Manchester United's Da Silva twins admit they were intimidated when first arriving at the club.

The Brazilians signed for United in February 2007 and moved over in January 2008 without ever having played a first-team game for their former club Fluminense.

Rafael admitted to The Sun: "We were quite intimidated when we arrived because United have so many stars, but people at the club were awesome in helping these two kids from Brazil feel so welcome."

Fabio added: "We get along well with everybody but Rio Ferdinand is our favourite. He's the funniest guy I've ever met in football. Anderson is totally bonkers, too."
