He's asked fans not to expect him to fill the boots of Ronaldo. Talking to the MEN he said:
"When I had my first conversations with United it was never said I was coming here as a replacement for the previous number seven. Obviously Cristiano did very well here, but I am here to do my job and do the things I do well. I am keen to do well. That is the main thing. I don't make any comparisons between myself and Cristiano."
