Larsson recalls scoring on his United debut

Prior to his January 2007 loan move to United from Swedish club Helsingborg, and a successful but injury-affected spell in Spain with Barcelona, Larsson enjoyed seven scintillating years at Scottish behemoths Celtic.

From the turn of the century, manager Martin O’Neill arrived at the Glasgow club, and the Swedish striker enjoyed his best years under the Northern Irishman.

It seemed fate then, that when Larsson made his United debut against Aston Villa, his former boss would be in the opposition dugout.

On the latest episode of the UTD Podcast - available in the United App from Monday - our former striker recalls making his Old Trafford bow against the Villans in the FA Cup.
