Garnacho makes a vow to supporters

Alejandro Garnacho believes his game is all about being daring and direct, as he looks to help Manchester United climb the Premier League table.
Ahead of Sunday's meeting with Chelsea at Old Trafford, the Academy graduate was asked by United Review, official matchday programme, what it feels like to perform on such a stage, in front of the Reds supporters.
Quickly adapting to the Theatre of Dreams, even during his days in the Under-18s, the Argentina winger accepts that he is looking to continually improve after reaching the landmark of 100 senior games for the club in the defeat to West Ham United.
"I have always been this type of player," he told United Review. "To be daring, to always try and try again and, if it doesn’t work, try again and never give up. That’s just who I am as a footballer and, in the future, I want to continue to reach my potential.
"I always try to do the best I can. Sometimes it comes off, sometimes it doesn't, but I always try to do the best for the team. Sometimes, it's best to dribble. Other times, it's best to cross. It depends on the situation but I always try to contribute the best I can and say, at the end of the game, that I have done everything possible."
Garnacho's self confidence is such an important asset for any winger, tasked with the responsibility of taking on opponents and making things happen.
"As a kid, I have always been this type of person," he explained. "Not just as a player but as a person. I have never been scared of anything and never get nervous - even if I play well or badly. So this is another point in my favour when playing, so yeah, I have always been like this.
"The only time I got a little bit nervous was when I entered the field of play for the FA Youth Cup final. The stadium was completely full and it was the first time I had experienced this. But, after that point, I’ve not felt that pressure again and I love playing at home with our fans.”
Garnacho believes his luck will change in front of goal, and he will be looking to breach the visiting defence during the visit of Enzo Maresca's Blues on Sunday.
"That’s what I like about who I am as a player," he added. "I always try to create opportunities, in one way or another. Sometimes you score, sometimes it is bad luck, sometimes it’s a bad finish but the important thing is I am still young and I am going to improve and, over the years, things will come off."
