Lindegaard: United Take Every Opponent Seriously

Following another game for United in last night’s Champions League victory in Romania, Anders Lindegaard has spoken highly of the way our club prepare for every game.

“One of the things that impressed me most when I came to United is that every game is handled the same way,” he said. “It doesn’t matter whether it is Crawley at home or Chelsea away. It has always been very serious. It seems like one of the cornerstones of this club is to always take your opponent seriously. It is going to be a normal build-up to the City game, as it would be with any other.”

Lindegaard is currently behind David de Gea in pecking order at United, despite his aspirations to eventually become our number one, although doesn’t let this get to him.

“I don’t feel under pressure,” he added. “Dealing with stuff like that is a massive thing at Manchester United. It is a big part of the game, not only because I am a goalkeeper but also as it is a constant at clubs of this size. We always have to win. I prepare the same, whether it is a training game in the United States or a Champions League game in Romania or Portugal. That is part of the job of being a goalkeeper. One of the important steps to success is always to be focused and concentrated.”

  7. Zibbie says:

    Linders, cool better then Lindy.
    Evan though VDS has gone, are the top 2 keepers this year better then the top 2 last year. Linders, if DDG went down he is a good #2 to still win things with.

  8. Costas says:

    Could have fooled me the way we played against Basle…

    Anyway, keep up the good work Anders. And next time don’t aim foir Vida’s head!

  9. TheCantona says:

    Fred
    Just scanned over it. Seems our little jock friend had been at the cooking sherry after being knocked out of Europe on FIFA 12!!! Tool.
    King Eric – hope to see you back fella and we still need that beer at OT!!
    Clint
    Had no idea pal but I gladly hand the 300th back to you!

  11. WillieRedNut says:

    If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands! :)

    Anders is a character!

    United 4 life

  13. Zibbie says:

    Put your right foot in. Take your right foot out, and shake it all about!

  14. Fred says:

    Mikekelly – LOL :D

  15. Zibbie says:

    Well if I want to retire when I’m 55 I must go make money. Have a RED day in RoMland.
    KILL THE BITTERS!!!!!!!!!!!!

  16. T4M says:

    He’s too good for the bench I hope he gets a fair share of playing time.

  17. Fred says:

    Zibbs – I don’t see TC being thrown back into action in this of all games. I think we’ll go with Carrick & Anderson or Carrick & Fletcher. I agree with the rest of your line-up though.

  18. Zibbie says:

    @Fred I was having some wishful thinking, maybe as an Impact sub. Get well soon TC!!!

  19. slim says:

    happy happy happy. pfft. happy is overrated lol

    Won’t be worried about KE,happens to everybody at some time or the other. His love for United will bring him back and also as soon as the wee one he’s expecting settles in. Shouldn’t be long now, another United follower on the way. :-)

  20. slim says:

    Costas wa bang on, shit in life just happens and before you know it you’re juggling a thousand things at once. Like i said KE and others will show up again.

  21. Costas says:

    Lets just hope that Cleverley will be back in time for Aldershot. He needs a game like that to ease his way back in the side. The City game comes too soon for him, even if he’s back to 100%. Last I heard, that wasn’t the case though. Right now Sir Alex is probably as torn as ever about which 2 out of Carrick, Fletcher and Ando will start. If he doesn’t go with a 4-5-1 line up…

    @slim

    I am confident about KE too. I know he will miss me sooner rather than later. :lol:

  22. ALEX THE GREAT says:

    Thanks Anders
    I’ve got to say I’m very very happy UTD fan,when you’ve got a guy who in the eyes of the media is a reserve goalkeeper and is a first team quality saying that he’s more than happy to be on the bench and show up whenever SAF needs him.Another gem unearthed by SAF.
    Who needs B.Foster and Kuzscak moaning they’re aren’t happy sitting on the bench, the first because everyone is so serious about every game and the latter one for not being N1.
    If you’re UTD fan and you’re given the chance to play you grab it with both hands not moan why this why
    that. Can’t believe how good SAF is from sorting out the chaff from the wheat.

  23. CedarsDevil says:

    Bonjour RoM, ca va?

  24. fergie is the boss says:

    Costas – it is really gutting cleverly still is not back yet, the sooner he is back we will see united really pick up

  25. jim says:

    @CedarsDevil
    ca va tres bien..is this right though?

  26. Sandeep1878 says:

    Good evening ROM,

    i have so much much faith in Lindy.

    i like his confidence, attitude and approach.

    He is gonna go miles with us, that of i m sure.

    Sir Alex giving him CL games just proves how quality and confident this lad is.

    we know our strikers conundrum, we know our wingers conundrum, we know our defenders conundrum when it comes to team selection, imagine us having two great golies fighting against/for each other..that time will surely come coz i hold Lindy in high regards..agreed that he needs imporvement when compared to De Gea but the lad has something in him that keeps us thrilled..

  27. CedarsDevil says:

    jim

    Not much of a French speaker my friend, was just showing off! Your note sounds right enough to me!

    French is the second language in my country but thank God I learned English! haha

    Willie

    Bonsoir mon ami

  31. jim says:

    @CedarsDevil
    Same here mate, had to learn some french because took it as 2nd language in college.

  32. CedarsDevil says:

    Blimey, this ‘Metersakker’ at Arsenal is one hell of a tall fella…. Watching Le Arse tonight, cannot stand seeing Barca or even Chelsea to be honest

  33. CedarsDevil says:

    jim

    Had me some Arsenal, sorry I mean French at school for a couple of years, only because it was compulsory… Still sounds better than German though!

  34. CedarsDevil says:

    Why is the Stade Velodrome half empty? Seems like its under renovation or are they City in disguise?

    And why so I feel like I am talking to myself, where on earth is everyone?

  35. jim says:

    @CedarsDevil
    Haha, Arsenal- french very good!! Damn these exams, City will probably be the last match i will be able to watch till 9th Nov, though might just sneak in the Everton match if all goes to plan!!

  36. Balaji Sivaraman says:

    Wait a minute, Torres has scored for Chelsea. Alert the media! Go to your basements folks! Armageddon beckons!

    thought posting the Rooney’s best goal again..HD

    http://www.metacafe.com/watch/5977879/wayne_rooney_goal_bicyle_kick_manchester_united_vs_manchester_city_hd_720p/

    that was one fucking goal, incredible..

    Hoping for him to score again and more importantly hoping for CedarsDevil to post ” i think Rooney will score the winner again” :P

  39. WillieRedNut says:

    Bonjour Cedars! :)

  40. Sandeep1878 says:

    Evra: “Now I know the city & the club & I can tell you that when you play for #MUFC at OT you no longer need to see the sunshine everyday.

  41. jim says:

    Probably mertesakker is too tall for his own good, looks really slow in his movements from what i saw against spurs, and did not attack the ball well when he was in arsenals penalty box(though theos deliveries might be the reason)

  42. CedarsDevil says:

    At this rate Le Arse will soon be down to 6 players! Jim, what exams are you taking? Almost forgot the term! hahaha

    Willie

    Evening my good friend, good on you for keeping things sane and in check here…. I am sure our buddy King Eric will be back soon

  43. jim says:

    Chartered Accountants 2nd level here in India, had to literally convince my parents to watch the match yesterday cause when the match ends it is nearly 2.15am. Not missed a single match this season, but the next Champs League match is a certain miss. Gutted!!

  44. CedarsDevil says:

    Way too many ‘carton jaune’ for Le Arse so far

    @RMW

    Hello pal!

  69. tom c says:

    KING ERIC WHERE ARE YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

    where’s our reactions to the pool game? :/

  70. voice of reason says:

    We have some keepers this season don’t we? Always like to see players reach their full potential with us but looks like one will be left behind and it appears to be Lindegaard. But the season is long and hope he gets a fair share of the pie.

    Sir Alex and his staffs are a genius, both keepers were bought capable of being Manchester United’s1st choice. It was only a matter of skill vs dominance, which one edges over another slightly.

    Speaking of keepers, Sam Johnstone is having a cracking time at Scunthorpe United. Him and Ben hopefully will be capable enough to be back up for years to come or even better our own 1st choice GK.

  71. voice of reason says:

    Reaction to the game of ROM and stretford-end were the best and 1st thing I look forward to after a game. Both seems to be unavailable even this late.

    Dissapointing time for a United fan.

    We want reactions
