Daley Blind has insisted that he feels "confident" slotting in at centre-back ahead of Manchester United's derby clash against Manchester City on Thursday.
The Dutchman was named alongside Eric Bailly for last weekend's 2-0 victory over Burnley, and the duo may have to resume their partnership for the visit to the Etihad Stadium.
Jose Mourinho has a hoard of defensive injuries, with Marcos Rojo out for the rest of the season, while Chris Smalling and Phil Jones are still out of action.
"I think we have a good understanding in spite of the language [difference] but I think it went very well [against Burnley] and we played particularly well," Blind told MUTV.
"I played [at centre-back] a lot of times last season and I feel confident in the position, I feel good in the position and feel comfortable. I'm happy to play there again and of course everybody knows me, I play where the manager needs me, and I just want to play like anybody else."
United will move into the top four if they seal a victory over City in two days' time.
