Victor Lindelof has said he is getting used to the competitiveness of the Premier League.
“Obviously, the league here is much tougher than Portugal,” Lindelof told United Review “Over there, you have good teams but you have the top teams that are always the favourites in every game and winning almost every game.
“Here, it’s much more difficult and you have tough games every week. That’s the biggest the change, the competitiveness you have in the league.”
Despite managing Lindelof’s workload carefully — he has started seven games this season — Mourinho has spoken highly of his summer signing. It is something the centre-back says has helped during a challenging start to his career at Old Trafford.
“I like him a lot,” Lindelof added. “He’s a very good coach, in my opinion, the best in the world and, for me to be able to work with him, is a pleasure.
“All of the staff and coaches as well, they are great and I am learning a lot from them. I’m just trying to do my best to work hard every day and listen to them because they know a lot about football, so it’s about listening and learning.”
