Manchester United goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard is turning up the pressure on David De Gea.

Lindegaard has underlined the growing threat he poses to De Gea at Manchester United with a tweet boasting about his record of six clean sheets in seven games this season.

Within two hours of the final whistle against Wigan, Lindegaard issued a public reminder of his impressive form as De Gea's understudy by tweeting: "Calmfidence - 6!" The word is an amalgamation of 'calmness' and 'confidence' while the number refers to Lindegaard's clean-sheet record.
