Manchester United winger Adnan Januzaj has admitted that he has struggled to fit into the club's plans this season.
Manager Louis van Gaal's preference for a 3-5-2 formation has seen Januzaj's chances of first-team football limited, and the Belgian has claimed that it has been hard for him to adapt.
"The system can make it more difficult for me to play there but I have to keep working. That is what I am doing in training every day, as I want to get more games this season," he told the club's matchday programme.
"I've been a No.10 since I was young and I can play there more easily but I know I can also play as a winger. I'm not really a wing-back. It's harder for me because there is more defending involved and I'm not really a defender.
"I was in attack for the Under-21s and, yes, we had the diamond at Cambridge [in the first leg of the FA Cup fourth round clash] and I played as a left midfielder. I feel comfortable there as well. I think I can play well there without a problem."
Januzaj has made just five league starts for United this season.
