Memphis Depay vows to overcome drop in form

Manchester United attacker Memphis Depay vows to work hard on the training ground in a bid to regain a spot in Louis van Gaal's starting XI.

Memphis Depay has insisted that Manchester United supporters will soon see the best of him following a difficult few weeks for the Dutchman.

The 21-year-old was a regular for his English club in the early stages of the season, but he has had to make do with a place on the substitutes' bench in recent weeks.

Depay has claimed that he found it "a bit easy" at the start, but has vowed to work hard on the training pitch to regain a spot in Louis van Gaal's starting XI.

"Of course it's difficult when you're on the bench but it's going better right now and it's also going better on the training pitch. So if I get my chance to play, I will take it," Depay told NOS.

"I think lots of things changed. I'm in a new club right now, it's a different level [to the Eredivisie]. Such things are playing a big role and you're trying to find your way and it was a bit easy at the start but then I fell back and you could see it in the way I played.

"But you can assume that I'm busy with working on that and getting back to the top. I feel fit and I'm trying to show on the training ground that I'm doing my best to perform well. People are used to see me score and that shall also come, it just takes a bit longer now but you'll have to find that form again."

Depay, who moved to Man United from PSV Eindhoven in the summer, has only scored one Premier League goal this season.
