``He is not an eye-catching player, so some people take Nicky Butt for granted - but not the rest of the squad and not the supporters,'' said Albiston. "Nicky has come up through the youth ranks and understands exactly what the club is about. There will be no problem with him coming into the team. He has been unfortunate over the years with injuries and has often been the one left out of the side when everyone has been fit. But he stamped his authority on the team last season, even if he only really got noticed in the World Cup.''
Albiston has hope for the combination of Butt and Veron or the Paul Scholes in the middle of the park.
``Nicky has a great understanding with Paul because of all the years they have played together,'' said the former Scotland international. Juan is obviously a different type of player, capable of producing the kind of defence-splitting passes Nicky generally leaves to someone else.He maybe underestimated but you don't make over 250 appearances for Manchester United without being able to play and I'm confident he will do well.''
