Juventus midfielder Weston McKennie feels he's grown this season.

McKennie returned to Juve after spending last term at Leeds.

The USA international told ESPN: For me, I think the league helped me grow in more of a tactical and positional standpoint.

I was in Germany before, and I was the workhorse still, running everywhere and trying to get into everything, maybe running 60 yards when I only needed to run 20 to get the same job done, so I think that Italy helped me out in that way, it's a very tactical and defensive league."

On his difficulties, he added: Probably just the language. Also, coming here and being someone no-one really knew about, I didn't have a translator so I was just sitting in meetings like 'Uhh what's going on?' and then was expected to do it on the field straight away. Definitely the language."
