Edwin Van Der Sar to give input for his successor at Man United
Manchester United veteran goalkeeper Edwin Van Der Sar looks forward to giving his opinion on who should replace him in between the sticks for Manchester United.
Van Der Sar has confirmed his retirement from the footballing World by the end of the current season. Currently, United have the likes of newly-signed http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Anders-Lindegaard-c5553, who put forward a solid performance on his debut against Southampton in the FA Cup.
Also, Polish International http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Tomasz-Kuszczak-c35329 was impressive this season during the absence of the Dutchman in the early part of 2011.
However, the Red Devils have been linked to a move to some of the biggest goalkeeping names on the planet, which includes fellow Dutchman http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Maarten-Stekelenburg-c22998, who replaced Van Der Sar for Holland, following his retirement from the International fold after
Euro 2008.
"I think the manager will talk to me. Obviously you have some conversations about yourself or about other things. But I presume they have done some homework already because I don't think this is a big shock. I would expect them to have a few possibilities
on their radar," stated the 40-year-old goalkeeper.
Edwin Van Der Sar has been in top form since his arrival at Old Trafford in 2005, and his phenomenal performances have led him to be compared to Red Devil’s legendary goalkeeper, Peter Schmeichel. His remarkable services for the club would be missed by all.
The player recently supplied a wonderful long ball to United striker http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Rooney-c36736, which led to the English footballer scoring the first goal for United’s 3-1 win over Aston Villa. The entire United squad praised the player’s vision and celebrated the goal
with the 40-year-old. Van Der Sar holds the record of appearing most time for the Dutch National side and expects to lift the Premier League trophy by the end of the season with Man United. He holds an exceptional record of managing 50% clean sheets with the
Red Devils since 2005, and is considered no less than a legend at Old Trafford.
