“Everyone will know, whenever anyone gets up, it’s normally like, ‘Here is a spoon, get on a stool or a chair and sing.’
“And I was one of the first ones because I am one of the older players, so straight away I am rattling the glasses to try and see.
“We had Varane, Jadon had to do his little piece and obviously Cristiano. We were all sort of on tenterhooks thinking if he was going to get up and sing.
“Ronaldo was brilliant, obviously I am not going to disclose the contents of what he said, but it was interesting that was one of the points that he made about his nerves.
“He reiterated it post-match, so really interesting. But what I think that it does show, and something we are all aware as players, is that he really wants to be back here.
“He was incredibly excited at the opportunity to come back and play for the club, so that’s incredibly humbling for Manchester United fans and anyone connected to the club.”
