Once again, the ritual exchange of compliments has been taking place on the United website. Here's Schneiderlin on his new employer ...

Once I learned that United were interested in signing me, it was a very easy decision to make ... I know what Manchester United means to fans all over the world and I'm looking forward to experiencing that.

... and here's his new boss on the man himself.

Morgan is a very talented player with great energy and ability. His skills will complement the players that we already have.

Big few minutes there, folks. Now ... BRING ON JEFFREY SCHLUPP.
