Jack Butland enjoying his time with Man Utd

Jack Butland says he's enjoyed his time with Manchester United.

The Crystal Palace goalkeeper joined United on-loan in January.

"I mean you can only be yourself and certainly I felt when I first came in, you're a little bit wary of being too loud or too boisterous and chirpy at times because I'm a happy sort of chirpy character," the England international told manutd.com, when explaining his role and character.

“So you tread carefully to begin with, make sure you don't sort of rub anyone up the wrong way, but they're a great group. I've got on really well with everybody.

“We have a great laugh in training, whether it's with some of the attacking players – even just shooting practice with Bruno [Fernandes] and Fred and things like that, you get a really good rapport with people and everyone's themselves and we have a great time.

“I'm certainly a positive person. I like having a positive impact on people and, you know, I feel extremely positive about myself and where I'm at, at the minute."

Butland is off contract at Palace at the end of next month.
