Manchester United defender Gabriel Heinze has hailed his current crop of team-mates at Old Trafford, claiming the team he is apart of is "sensational"

After missing several weeks of his first season at his new club due to international duty with Argentina, fans started to question his desire to be a Red Devil but following consistent performances, the left-back is now a firm fan-favourite.

The former PSG fan has missed few games since finally landing in England, and loves his new club. "People had better understand that this is a totally sensational team I'm playing in" he admitted. "We are only just getting to know each other and I can tell that this is going to be a team which will win one of the great prizes in England and Europe when we are fully established"

"This is a tremendous group, full of superstars with a down to earth attitude and that is very rare"

"I also look around me and see players that are hungry to do great thing individually and as a team" 

Regarding his relationship with striker Wayne Rooney, he added: "The strange thing is when I first went out on to the training pitch with Wayne I wasn't that impressed

"He seemed very laid back and quiet and not what I expected"

"Then from the very first match we played together I totally ripped up my opinion and realised we are talking about a player with world pedigree, a born maker and scorer of goals."
