James was signed from Swansea City last summer and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer told his young recruit that he would probably play 15 to 20 games in his maiden campaign, while he adjusted to the club.
However, after an impressive pre-season tour and an electric start to 2019/20, Daniel quickly became one of the first names on our team sheet and he has 25 appearances to his name already.
James has also scored three goals and notched seven assists across all competitions, which is an admirable return at this stage of his fledgling career.
Speaking during an exclusive interview that appears in tonight’s edition of United Review, the official matchday programme at Old Trafford, James outlines his determination to enhance those statistics in the next five months.
