‘It couldn’t have been a better day for us’

“There are those moments and obviously the trophies we’ve won as well,” he continued. “There are a lot of great memories – especially the FA Cup, but the European one [the Europa League in 2017] was brilliant as well.

“That team was quite young and a lot of us had never won the FA Cup or a trophy. Wazza [Wayne Rooney] and Carrers [Michael Carrick] had never won it before that. It was important for them to win it and important for us, as young lads, to win the first trophy for the club, to get that winning feeling.

“When you do, you get that hunger to go on and win more trophies. It was a mixture of everything, the atmosphere was crazy that day at Wembley.

“It couldn’t have been a better day for us.”
