Chris Smalling plays down Manchester United efforts

Chris Smalling is refusing to celebrate Manchester United’s return to the Champions League.

Liverpool’s draw at Chelsea last week meant United’s one-year absence from the biggest club competition in the world was over.

Cambridge, Stoke and Burnley have been the midweek visitors this season, but next year United will take on the biggest teams in Europe under the lights at Old Trafford — providing they come through a play-off in August.
