"I buy a new T-shirt every year when logo changes. I have been following club for last 21-22 years. Marcus reminds me of Ronaldo. When I see his pace, running with ball. I think if someone really has calibre to reach re in future. I used to be a fan of Ryan Giggs because of his left foot, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Ronaldo. I see that current trio of Martial, Greenwood, and Rashford have similar qualities to those guys", said Yuvraj.

Yuvraj also recalled time he went to London to watch a match between Arsenal and United, which Red Devils ended up winning 2-1 on night. Yuvi said that after match he had to hide his and his friend's Manchester United scarf because re were a lot of 'angry Arsenal fans' around.
