Mkhitaryan: Lukaku is a 'pleasure' to have at Man Utd

Manchester United playmaker Henrikh Mkhitaryan says that it's a pleasure to play with a talented striker like Romelu Lukaku in the United squad.

The Belgian, who scored his debut goal from Mkhitaryan's assist last week, has joined United in a £75m deal from Everton.

"It's a pleasure to play with him," said Mkhitaryan. "He can hold the ball, he can play in the space, he's fast, he's quick. He has the smell to score goals.

"He knows where he has to be in the right moment, at the right time. I think with him, Manchester United can have a great season."
