Javier Hernandez says everyone at Manchester United are very close.
The Mexico star has been a revelation since arriving at United in the summer.
He told manutd.com: "The biggest thing that has struck me is this: everyone around the world knows about Manchester United; when you're on the outside it seems like a huge club, but now I am here, it doesn't seem so big. I feel comfortable, it's like a small family. I'm very happy."
Asked about Sir Alex Ferguson, Hernandez replied: "I've been telling the media in Mexico about him. He's like a 'sir', a gentlemen both during matches and away from the game. That's why I think he'll be regarded as the greatest manager in the modern era.
"When I first met him he just told me to enjoy myself here. That helped to take any pressure off me, so now I can concentrate on working hard and trying to play well."
