Lindegaard not feeling Man Utd pressure

Manchester United goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard says he is not feeling the pressure of playing for such a big club.

The 27-year old continues to battle young gun David De Gea for the number one position at Old Trafford with Sir Alex Ferguson preferring his services in the Champions League and the Spaniard's in the Premier League.

But Lindegaard says it does not feel cut-throat to him and he is just enjoying playing for one of the biggest clubs in the world.

"I don't feel under pressure," he said.

"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."
