Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes was delighted with his hat-trick after their 5-1 rout of Leeds United.
Fernandes was superb in front of a full house at Old Trafford.
He said afterwards: "We missed the fans, we are really happy with this result. We waited so long, so everyone's happy for them today. We're really happy with the result.
"My objective every season is being better than the last one. Every performance I do, I want to do better and better. I've started with three goals but it's a long way [to go]."
On Paul Pogba, he added: "People talk about the quality of Paul, but his quality is not in discussion. We know what he can do and today he showed that. He's an important player for us. We know to expect these kind of performances from Paul."
On the coming campaign, Fernandes also said: "We know the quality of the players who have come in, but the team was already very good. We showed it last season. We didn't win trophies, but the team was growing up. Our focus has to be game by game. We'll achieve something with this mentality."
