New Manchester United midfielder Nick Powell compares his first week at the club with starting at a new school.

Manchester United midfielder Nick Powell has compared his first day at the club with starting at a new school.

The 18-year-old made the dream move to Old Trafford from Crewe Alexandra last month and was officially unveiled by manager Sir Alex Ferguson at a press conference on Thursday.

"I didn't really sleep to be honest! I was quite nervous – it felt like I was starting a new school again," he told the club's official website.

"It's been great. The lads are really nice and they've all helped me through the first week. I feel like I've fitted in well with everyone. The training is different but it's something I'm enjoying and just getting used to.

"I tried to get involved with everyone straight away when I arrived and that helped. And as I said before everyone around the place has been really friendly and welcoming."

New signing Shinji Kagawa was also present at the press conference following his move from Borussia Dortmund.
