Goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard has admitted that Manchester United will have to be at their best against West Ham United tomorrow night.
The Red Devils are regarded as the clear favourites to claim maximum points against the Hammers at Old Trafford.
However, just because they are not facing one of the biggest clubs in the division, Danish keeper Lindegaard has insisted that United can not afford to take their London-based opponents lightly.
"As a goalkeeper, you want as little to do as possible and it's a very different kind of football to deal with," Lindegaard told the club's official website. "You have to reset your mind when you play against Barcelona or Arsenal because there's a lot of short passing so you have to be on your toes in and around the box all the time.
"When you play against teams like West Ham, or Southampton and Stoke for example, it's a completely different picture. You have to be aware of crosses and get ready in your mind to deal with them.
"It maybe sounds weird when you look at other leagues around the world where they say English football is more physical. Where I played before, in Norway, it's constantly physical with very little quick play around the box."
United head into the clash top of the Premier League table.
