Mkhitaryan: I've worked hard to earn my chance

Henrikh Mkhitaryan says he has worked hard to earn his chance at Manchester United.

The Armenia midfielder has been out of favour at Old Trafford this season after joining in the summer, but has recently started to work his way into the side.

"It was very exciting to play again today, it's always a pleasure to play with these guys," Mkhitaryan told Gary Flintoff on 5 live Sport after making his ninth appearance of the season in Wednesday’s 4-1 win over West Ham.

"I've worked very hard because I wasn't playing too much, but now I've got the chance I'm trying to do my best to help the team win."
