Manchester United midfielder Fred admits it has been a 'hard few months' but credited boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer with bringing out the best in him.
The Brazilian has struggled since he made the switch to United last summer in a £53million move from Shakhtar Donetsk.
His minutes on the pitch have fallen massively in recent months but a starring role in Wednesday's dramatic 3-1 win over Paris Saint-Germain suggests the midfielder is now ready to seize his moment in a United shirt.
'It's been a hard few months,' Fred told ESPN. 'I have not been playing. There has been a lot of things going on in my mind.
'Ole has helped me a lot. He had a lot of chats with me. [Michael Carrick] also speaks to me a lot. That brings me calm that things will turn around for me.
'They trust me and I feel that trust. And they were right to trust me because I showed tonight that I can play against one of the best teams in the world and play well.
'I'm very, very happy. My confidence is getting better.'
