Man Utd fullback Wan-Bissaka: No nerves; Tuanzebe great for me

Manchester United fullback Aaron Wan-Bissaka admits he never gets pre-match nerves.

The former Crystal Palace defender was outstanding on debut for victory over Chelsea - and credits Axel Tuanzebe for helping him settle.

"I wasn't nervous for my debut - that's not me," said Wan-Bissaka.

"All eyes were definitely on all the new signings to see how we got on but I tend to block all that stuff out and focus on my game.

"I was happy with my performance, I couldn't have been happier with how it went. The whole squad has been looking after me but I'm particularly close with Axel. He is one that has taken me under his wing since I joined. He's a really good guy."

On facing Wolves on Monday, he added: "I've heard great things about the United away support, it is up to us to give them something to celebrate at Wolves.

"It'll be a tough game obviously. We have to take the positives from the Chelsea game and look to improve where there were negatives."
