Chris Smalling was delighted to get back into the centre of Manchester United's defence in Bucharest on Tuesday night.
Handed a starting role alongside skipper Nemanja Vidic for the 2-0 Champions League triumph over Otelul Galati, it was only the second time this season Smalling had begun a game in his favourite position.
Yet his performances at right-back have been so spectacular he got into the England side for last month's Euro 2012 qualifiers against Bulgaria and Wales.
However, Smalling clearly views it as a temporary measure.
"It was nice to be back in central defence," said the 21-year-old.
