Sergio Romero is delighted with the start of his Manchester United career.

The Argrentine has two cleansheets in the opening two games of the season.

“I am back with my old manager and I am so happy," said Romero to the Sunday Mirror.

“I owe Louis van Gaal so much. I will tell you what I told the boss the first time we worked together: that when you have an Argentine in your team, you get a never-give-up mentality.

“I find it incredible that I am now at this club after the year that I have had. I wasn't wanted anywhere else, but I am coming towards the strongest and best part of my football life."

Romero played for Louis van Gaal at AZ Alkmaar.

“It was Van Gaal who made me an international player.

“I will never forget the morning he told me that he had been speaking on the telephone to a certain Mr Maradona and that the coach of Argentina wanted to select me.

“I now want to make him proud again after the crisis of what happened to my hand in Alkmaar.

“I am so proud of where I stand today. My wife and my two kids are so proud. And I know for sure that my father, who is in heaven, is also proud."
