| Morgan Schneiderlin is expected to start for Manchester United against Club Brugge tonight |
NEW Manchester United signing Morgan Schneiderlin says he is close to full fitness.
The midfielder joined the Old Trafford club in a £25million transfer from Southampton this summer.
He suffered a knee ligament injury at the back end of last season that threatened to curtail his move.
But the Frenchman, who has played full games in both of United's wins at the start of the new season, says he will only improve.
"To play for such a team like Manchester United is a beautiful thing," the 25-year-old told manutd.com.
"We look strong and, personally, I feel like I am getting closer to being 100 percent physically. I am not quite there yet but it will come.
"I have been pleased to be able to make some good interceptions, but I don't want to lose any balls when I have possession and that's what I will continue to improve upon."
United have won both their league fixtures 1-0 this season and head into the first leg of their Champions League qualifying playoff round with Club Bruges high on confidence.
"Two wins out of two is very good so far and a very good start to the Premier League," Schneiderlin added.
"We are happy after the results but still not 100 percent happy with the performances because we know we can still improve.
"In the Premier League, it's all about winning games to win titles, so sometimes you need to be able to get the victories when you don't have the best performance, and that's what we've done so far."
