Any glimpses we have seen of the German this season have come in two substitute appearances for United, both in the domestic cup competitions.
The reaction to the midfielder gracing the turf for only a couple of minutes was enough to send Twitter into raptures, so you can imagine that when news filtered through of the 32-year-old's first start, well it's safe to say it made people's day.

Schweinsteiger and the United team had struggled to break Wigan down. However, just before half-time, the German delivered a pinpoint cross to Marouane Fellaini, who gave United the lead with a header.
United fans were full of praise for Schweinstiger's role in the goal
