Blind not worried by Man Utd position

Daley Blind insists he is not too bothered by where he plays for Manchester United.

The Dutchman has been deployed in a number of different positions by manager Louis van Gaal since his arrival at Old Trafford last summer.

25-year-old Blind has been used as a left-back, defensive midfielder and wingback but more recently, van Gaal has been using him at centre-half, which is a position the Holland international says he does not mind.

"I already said many times I play where the manager needs me. Now he gives me the chance in this position and I try to do my best," he told Helden regarding his role in recent pre-season matches in the USA.

"I think it worked out good against Barcelona. I have played there before, so I know what is asked of me in that position."
