Van der Sar's calming influence

Van Der Sar Praised For Calming Influence
Edwin van der Sar has brought a calming influence to United’s defence,
with the Reds yet to concede a goal in competitive play this season.
The European Cup winner with Ajax has provided the experience
and organisational skills that Sir Alex Ferguson has sought
since United last won the European Cup themselves.
Reds defender Mikael Silvestre believes the 34-year-old
Holland captain's vocal influence has made a marked difference to
United’s defence.
"It's been good to have Edwin here," Silvestre told Manchester United Radio.
"He has a lot of experience at the top level
and I think he will improve our performances defensively this season.
"It's important to have a goalkeeper who is always talking to you
and directing you, even more so at United.
At this club you need a goalkeeper who is constantly aware
because you're not involved in the game all the time.
We have to hear him and know that he is going to give us the right advice.
"He's a proven goalkeeper at the very highest level.
He's played at Ajax and Juventus and he is a European Cup winner,
so he has the experience we need."
With the emphasis on avoiding the kind of start that hindered
United’s campaign last term, three clean sheets against Debreceni,
Everton and Aston Villa have come as welcome foundation
for the rest of the season.
"We are happy with the way we have started," Silvestre adds.
"It's important that we haven't lost because that sets the standard
for the whole season.
"We knew we needed to be, if not at our best, close to 100%
for the first few games. Within four or five matches of the season,
we can be at full fitness and playing our best football."
