Daniel James reckons Bruno Fernandes has settled in so quickly at Manchester United due to the club's large Portuguese-speaking contingent as well as his own impressive grasp of the English language.
The 25-year-old is getting to know his new teammates in Spain this week, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and his players on a warm-weather training camp in Marbella.
United have four native Portuguese speakers in their squad in Fernandes, Diogo Dalot, Andreas Pereira and Fred, and James believes they have helped Fernandes bed in at his new club.
"He is settling in great," James said of Fernandes. "I know quite a few of the boys speak his language and he speaks great English as well.
"So I think as soon as he came in he put his stamp on the game and he showed what he is about in that last game, on his debut.
"He was great, with the balls he played in behind and, for me, if we can get that bond, especially playing it in behind, I think that will be great.”
James' own form has dipped in recent months after an explosive start to his United career but he is hoping to end the campaign with some silverware under his belt.
"It would mean everything [to win a trophy]," James told manutd.com. "That is why I am at this club, to win trophies.
"We have got a great chance in both of them (the FA Cup and Europa League). Obviously we have got the Premier League game on Monday [against Chelsea] and then we have got that Europa League game [against Club Brugge] on Thursday, so we will go into both of those with our heads held high."
