I have played against him but now I'm lucky to play with him," he said. "He is very important for us and everybody see how everything's going up for him. I hope he can keep scoring goals and helping us out." United are one of five English clubs atop their Champions League group at the halfway mark. Bailly said: "The Premier League is one of the best leagues with many good teams and we are getting good results. "But we must focus on ourselves and keep going. We are playing well and winning many games."</blockquote>
