Lindegaard: Man Utd senior players won't accept any complacency

Manchester United goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard says their senior players are demanding zero complacency going into the title run-in.

Lindegaard stressed the desire of those who have been in this situation before is providing an example for the others to follow.

"We are at a crucial stage of the season and have to stay sharp," he stated on MUTV.

"I think it's very important for us not to look at the table right now. People from outside will say we've put ourselves in a comfortable situation but it's very important for us to take it game by game so we don't get to relax.

"Of course, it's a good position to be in but it's something we cannot think about. I think you can feel it in the team now, especially with the more experienced players, that we're entering the late stage of the season when all the medals are going to be given out.

"From Rio, Giggsy, Scholes and Vida, you can really feel it with the players who have done it before and see how determined they are and how important it is to them.

"The younger and less experienced players try to look to them leading us in the right direction, reminding us every day to stay sharp, not to relax and to keep going."
