00:00You said you want to stay when Rigan comes in, would you really be happy with some of the reduced role you've had under Eric,

00:06given he's going to be head coach and your assistant manager, and will it be his decisions you think or will it be a club call?

00:13No, like I said Wednesday, is that I came here to help as an assistant, as a coach and in this bit as well as an interim for a short spell.

00:29And then, again, in any capacity willing to help, so in that sense I'm open for the future.

00:37We'll all be backing him and helping him to get Manchester United to where we all want it to be,

00:45and I think that spirit is the most important to have, and it's not about individuals but it's about the club.

00:52What do you think of the appointment of Rigan as a coach?

00:59I look forward to getting to know him better, he's obviously done very well in Portugal,

01:06he's a very young, talented coach and did well for a long time over a longer spell in Portugal.

01:14So, as I said, I'm looking forward to keep helping the club forward, that's my main goal.
