Fred: We're building something great in Manchester United
Fred spoke to Manchester United's site about how his role in the team has adapted over time.
“Last season, I played a bit further forward under Ralf [Rangnick], he gave me a bit more freedom to get in the box to score and assist,” Fred said. “We'll see what Erik asks of me now, he may want me more in the build-up of play.
“As I just said, regardless of scoring, I want to help my team-mates. I want to carry the piano on the pitch for them to score and help the team.
“The most important thing is that we achieve our goals to take us as far as possible.”
“I believe the team spirit is getting stronger,” the Brazilian added. “We're working hard this pre-season so we can be flying when the league starts, that's the priority.
“We're building something great here, I hope it all works out over the season.
“Of course, there's a lot of quality with the young players, they've been impressing the manager as well.
“They've been great in training and in matches during this pre-season. I hope they can help us, the older players look to help them to settle into the team as well.
“Hopefully they can do great things with us in the future.”
