Swedish star of transformation
He had a tough start to the season – Victor Nilsson Lindelöf is now one of the most powerful players in Manchester United.
L & # 39; s explanation? The support of José Mourinho.
"It was very important for me," said the Swede before the weekend derby against City.
Manchester United had a bad start to the season and one of the most criticized players was Victor Nilsson Lindelöf. But the Swedish national team, aged 24, is no longer in shape and has become a key player.
He was one of three nominees for "The best player of October" and was commended for his contribution to Juventus on Wednesday.
He is now ready for his biggest challenge under the United shirt to date. He should play in the miserly derby of Sunday at City Rival City.
"I hope that, in any case, I will have to play," Lindelöf said in an interview with AP.
"Feeling confident"
He thinks a victory against City could be a turning point for the entire season.
"City is a very good team, especially at home, so it will be very difficult, but we are confident that we can go there and make it difficult." You want to win every game, but we had a difficult start to the season, but now we have had good results recently and we have to keep working hard every day, "Lindelöf said.
For your part then?
– It feels good. I have played a lot of matches, I try to drive and do my best for the team. At the moment, it feels good, the body is fresh. I never doubted myself. I have always been confident.
Mourinho Refuge
Mourinho complained openly that United had not won one of the midfielders this summer, but Lindelöf did not criticize it. He rather considers Mourinho as one of the main reasons why he has become a key player.
"Mourinho has been very important to me from the very first day, he talks with me, tries to help me improve my game and things like that, he was very important, I think he's fantastic and I am very happy to have him as a coach, says Victor Nilsson Lindelöf.
