Real Sociedad winger Adnan Januzaj has no regrets leaving Manchester United.

The midfielder has used the move to play his way into the Belgium squad.

He told the Telegraph: I grew up there [United], I was really happy until one year I had a bit of a struggle with the manager and that slowed me down.

I always knew I had all the qualities to turn things around. The problem was, I was not playing and, then, every time I came in, it was difficult to change the game or make something happen, so, obviously, then imagine playing for a year like this? It makes it more difficult for you."

Because you are the one player who can make the difference, score goals and you can imagine if he [the manager] does not give you the confidence to take your opponent on, it gets even more difficult for you because you don't know what to do: to attack or to play simple.

I came in for a lot of criticism but, for me, it's not a problem because I never look back on it. I just keep doing my stuff and now I'm in another league, I'm happy, I played in my second World Cup, I scored against England, too, so I showed to people that against an English team, who all play in the Premier League, I can still make the difference. It was a good moment."
