Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes has said that he is confident that he can form an effective midfield partnership with Paul Pogba at Old Trafford.
With Ole Gunnar Solskjaer not short of competition for places in the middle of the park, questions have been raised as to whether or not the pairing of Fernandes and Pogba is the best option for United.
However, Fernandes has affirmed that he gets on well with Pogba and is confident that the duo can achieve "great things" on the pitch together.
Speaking to Sky Sports News, Fernandes said: "We have a good relationship, of course. We both speak Italian so most of the time we speak Italian. I have a good relationship with him on and off the pitch.
"He's a funny guy, he always wants to joke. I know him from Italy already but now I have the chance to be in a team with a World Cup winner.
"It's always a pleasure being in a team with him because I can learn a lot from him, and he can learn a lot from me. Together we can do great things."
Manchester United's Premier League campaign continues on Sunday when they welcome Arsenal to Old Trafford.
