Manchester United winger Daniel James says he is trying to give his best performances every game he plays.

The Welshman has not been a regular for United this season.

But James has chipped in with important goals and vital performances in the games he has started.

Asked about his United career so far by reporters, James said: "I played a lot last season, more than I expected coming in. I wouldn't say it surprised me, I've worked very hard to get into this position. At the start I was playing out of enjoyment and excitement, I was so happy to be here.

"Through life you got through difficult patches. Every player has been through it, and it's about not sticking your head in the sand. It's about reflecting and learning every single day, which I feel like I have, and trying to get back to the form at the start of last season.

"I like to think I'm on a good pathway for it. I've still got so much to learn and I'm learning every day. The gaffer and the coaches are always speaking to me, it's just about doing the right thing all the time.

"I think it's been a learning one for me. It's been time to knuckle time get stuck in in training, reflect on things and that's what I've done. I've been reflecting every day to get back to where I want to be."
