Scunthorpe midfielder Norwood happy Man Utd watching his progress

Scunthorpe United midfielder Oliver Norwood is happy knowing parent club Manchester United are watching him.

United have been keeping tabs on Norwood with Paul Scholes checking on the midfielder during last month's draw with Huddersfield where he scored his first goal for Scunthorpe with a stunning long-range effort.

He told skysports.com: "The gaffer sent Scholes to watch me against Huddersfield when I scored my first goal and it was nice him being there.

"Warren Joyce [reserve team manager] follows the lads on loan and I am sure he reports back to the gaffer and he is the one that makes the decisions."
