Man Utd's Young hails 'fantastic teammates' for recent run

Ashley Young believes his Manchester United teammates have been a major reason why he is now a regular again.

The 29-year old winger experienced a difficult start to the season, mainly due to groin and pelvis injuries, but is back in Louis van Gaal's starting line-up in recent times and the former Aston Villa ace says he has his colleagues to thank.

"Of course, I'm happy. Playing regularly week in, week out," Young told Sky Sports News HQ.

"As a player, that's all you want to do - to be playing well and cement your place in the team.

"Obviously it helps when you've got fantastic teammates around you, and a great team spirit that we've got.

"I'm playing well and enjoying my football. The team's doing well too."
