13:50 Mata was asked how he felt about linking up with
Wayne Rooney. He had this to say: "I can't wait to play alongside him. For me he's one of the best players in the history of this country. He can score, he can assist, he can come deep to the midfield to take the ball... I think I'll enjoy playing alongside him. I'll try to connect with him as much as I can, I'll try to find gaps. I think that's my best kind of playing, to try to assist the strikers."

there'll be more players like Juan in the future. There's no doubt about that."

13:42 Mata says he was desperate to come to United as soon as he heard the club were interested: "I just wanted to go to a place where I knew I'd feel happy and I'm happy now. United is a massive club - it's the club in England with the most fans around the world. It's a big step and I think everything will be fine... with the players we have and the players that will come in the summer."
13:40 Mata has also said how pleases he is to be here: "To come here is a great moment for me. I feel very happy to have the chance to play in a massive club like this.

13:38 Juan Mata and David Moyes are here. Moyes is talking about his delight at signing the Spain international: "I'm thrilled. I got wind of it a month or two ago, that he could be a possiblity. I never really believed I'd pull it off. I didn't think we'd get to do much business in January. But when we got the sniff that Juan would be available we went after it right away. Congratulations to the club and Ed Woodward for getting the deal done. We're delighted."
