Anderson: “This is a very big season for me”

Manchester United midfielder Anderson has admitted that he went through hard times in his career, after being plagued by a series of injuries, but is confident that he can impress at the club, ahead of the new campaign.

“The last two years have been very difficult. No-one wants a player who has a lot of injuries,” the Brazilian player said to reporters.

“But I am still young. I am only 24. And I believe I can get through this.”

“All summer I stayed in Europe to work on my knee. Now I am 100%. I don't have any more injuries. I don't have a problem.”

The 24-year-old midfielder is credible that this season will either make or break his career, as he believes it will be the most important of his career.

“This is a very big season for me,” he added.

“In my first three years we won everything; Champions League, Premier League, Carling Cup. But then I suffered a cruciate injury and had a bad problem.”

“I tried to push through it when I came back but it was still sore. Sometimes it was bad and the pain stayed.”

“Sometimes you think you might have to change clubs but I love it here.”

“The club has always helped me, as have the other players. I have worked so hard trying to get right.”

“The thing is, if I stay fit, I can be that player. I can be a success at United.”
