Mike Phelan

It's hard for an up and coming player who has the eyes of Manchester United on them to take that opportunity and then sort of not given the opportunity to break through because of the quality already there.

You try to bring a smile to people's faces, and try to tell people of the adventure you've been on, the success you've had and what it takes.

I guess my career has gone in a roundabout way.

I had a fantastic career at Manchester United.

The target is to win football matches.

Setting points targets is sometimes the worst thing you can do - it puts pressure on.

There is fierce competition within the city. If United are at loggerheads within the club, it just helps fuel City's cause more than anything else.

At times you are going to miss people. When that happens, others have to come to the front and show the calibre that brought them to the club in the first place.

Managing people is no different wherever you are.

Jose Mourinho has experience of Premier League football and winning the title. He's a European Cup-winning manager so he knows what it is all about.

I've been in the lower divisions, I've been in the higher divisions so I have got the experience.

I had experience in abundance at Manchester United and it's up to me to bring that here to Hull.
