MANCHESTER UNITED new boy ace Chris Smalling has thanked Wes Brown and Jonny Evans for helping him settle in.
Smalling is looking for his second run-out for the club against Philadelphia Union on Wednesday at Lincoln Financial Field.
The former Fulham star played alongside Evans at the back in the 3-1 victory over Celtic on Friday in Toronto.
With Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic both absent, the 20-year-old has the chance to make an early impression on manager Sir Alex Ferguson and the coaching staff.
Smalling said: "The tour has been a really enjoyable experience so far. It was great to meet everyone, initially at Carrington.
"I have spent quite a bit of time with Wes and Jonny, my fellow centre-backs.
"And I have also been chatting to a lot of the younger lads. It is just great to get to know everybody and be part of such a great club. I just want to do my best."
Defensive team-mate Wes Brown said: "Chris is a great lad and has fitted in brilliantly.
"He has been training really well — he looks very fit and sharp. I am sure he will be ready and raring to go for the start of the season."
