Manchester United winger Tahith Chong is enjoying playing in front of Birmingham City's fans.

Chong is on a season-long loan at St Andrews.

He told manutd.com: "Yeah, I think, for every player really, to have some fans back into the stadium, it just feels nice to have supporters back. Whether it's home or away, I feel the stadiums are bouncing again so it's quite enjoyable really.

"Sometimes, in a game, it might be the last 15 minutes and you're feeling a bit tired. Sometimes the fans can push you through. If it's in the last five minutes, just to make that extra yard or extra slide-tackle, stuff like that. The fans are a massive part of that and it's just nice to have them back really."

On his role with the Blues, Chong also stated: "So I have played two or three different positions now. Obviously, we play most of the games with five or three at the back, whichever way you look at it, and I've been mostly in midfield. Probably on the left side of midfield if we play three or four. On the left side or into the no.10 position.

"I'm learning new stuff every day and that different positions require different things that you may have to do. These are things I may have to do to help the team out and it's been a very good experience for me. As a player, I can feel I am developing different aspects of the game."
