Juan Mata has insisted he is happy to play anywhere for
Manchester United and remains glad he moved to the club in January.
The Spaniard moved to the Premier League champions from
Chelsea for a club-record £37.1 million in the most recent transfer window,
after falling down the pecking order at Stamford Bridge under Jose Mourinho.
Mata has ended on the winning team just once in a United
shirt, while he has also filled a number of roles in his short stint at Old
Trafford.
David Moyes has already utilised Mata on either flank, as
well as in behind a main striker, but the 25-year-old is only interested in
where he can best help the team's cause.
Speaking ahead of United departing for warm-weather
training in the Middle East, Mata said: "Throughout my career I have
played on the left, on the right and just behind the striker.
"I don't mind playing anywhere the manager tells me.
"I am happy at the club, very happy.
"I am enjoying my football, I am getting minutes on
the pitch, I am in a very, very big club and I hope we finish the season well.
"David De Gea has helped me settle, the same with
Chicharito (Javier Hernandez), (Antonio) Valencia, and Rafael (da Silva), they
all speak Spanish but everyone there has helped me.
"People like (Ryan) Giggs have been here for many
years and there's (Wayne) Rooney and (Robin) Van Persie, they have all treated
me phenomenally well."
