Manchester United winger Wilfried Zaha has said that he is hoping for his big chance under the club's new manager Louis van Gaal.

The youngster, who was frozen out by former boss David Moyes, has pledged to alter his playing position to fit in with the Dutchman's plans.

"I am used to being a winger, but if a manager wants me to adapt to a new position then I'll have to," the Daily Mail quotes him as saying.

"It's not as much running as being a winger so I'll take it! I have heard he likes to bring young players through so I'm buzzing to hear he will give youngsters a chance.

"That's all I really wanted since I came here. I just want to be a Man United player. Hopefully this season I will get the chance."

Zaha, who spent last season on loan at Cardiff City, joined United from Crystal Palace in 2013.
