Daniel James admits a winning Manchester United debut against Chelsea last season was a special day.
James admits he grew up as a Chelsea fan.
He said, “I used to look at their players when I was younger – [Eden] Hazard, [Juan] Mata and [Didier] Drogba – and they were players that I loved. You kind of grow out of that.
“It was quite strange playing them in the first game of the season and before the game, I never thought I would come on.
“It’s a big game, I thought it would be a close encounter but we were actually 3-0 up.
“Then I thought I could get my opportunity here. It was goosebumps when the gaffer [Ole Gunnar Solskjaer] called my name.
“I think I got 15 minutes which was great. It was surreal and the fans, when I made my debut, it was just great them clapping when you come on and them really cheering you on. That set me alight really.”
