Tyler Blackett in awe of "special" Angel di Maria

By , Reporter
Manchester United defender Tyler Blackett admits that he has been impressed by the "special" ability of Angel di Maria.

Manchester United defender Tyler Blackett has talked up the "special" talent of Angel di Maria.

The Argentina winger signed for the Red Devils for a British record fee of around £60m towards the end of the transfer window, and the young defender has been impressed by the former Real Madrid star's ability.

He told the Manchester Evening News: "He's been amazing. He's one of the world's best players and the things that he does in training really make us stop and stare.

"The dribbling, the close control, these are things that a lot of players would like to have, but that not everybody's got. He really is special."

Di Maria scored for Louis van Gaal's side as they beat Everton 2-1 on Sunday.
