Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay is proud of how far he has come in recent years.

The Scotsman has emerged as a key figure for United in central midfield, starting important games since the international break.

The imposing midfielder has also enjoyed his time with Scotland, often playing as a center back for the national team.

Asked about his evolution at United, McTominay told reporters: "That's normal [competition for places], when you play for Man United if you don't have completion for places then I feel like you should be a little bit worried if nobody is pushing you or wants your shirt off you.

"You have to come into training with that mindset and that ambition to really keep improving.

"The coaches - the manager, Kieran [McKenna] and Michael [Carrick]; everyone really has helped me over the last few years to adapt. I feel like this time three years' ago I'm a very different player to what we're seeing now."
