Manchester United stopper Edwin van der Sar has joked he will concede a goal just to stop all the talk over his goalkeeping exploits. "It is getting annoying now so maybe I will do it in one or two games," he laughed.
"It is great of course but the records will only be important at the end of the season.
"If we end up losing another four or five games before the end of the season we probably won't be the champions and the goal is to win it.
"It is a halfway point. You take it on board but you don't celebrate."
Van der Sar has been the custodian of 13 successive Premier League clean sheets that dates back to a November 8 defeat by Arsenal.
An FA Cup tie at Derby is followed by Fulham at Old Trafford provides van der Sar with an opportunity to stretch his British best to world record proportions.
"When you talk about this achievement it is all about the team," he said.
"It is about organisation and trusting each other.
"If Rio steps to the right you know Vidic will follow. It is about knowing Rafael will come inside, or when Michael Carrick is going to block a shot from distance.
"It is magnificent. Hopefully we can keep it going for a while."
