Edwin van der Sar may have sent the records tumbling recently, but the Dutchman insists it's not all down to him.

The United stopper passed Petr Cech's Premier League record of 1,025 minutes without conceding at West Brom last month. He then took the English league record against Everton before setting a new British league record at Upton Park, passing Bobby Clark's 1,155 minutes, set at Aberdeen in 1970/71.

"I've had records before at Ajax and with Holland, but it's all about the team," he told United Review. 

"It made me proud to break the record, but you can't achieve that on your own. It's the centre-halves doing their job, the right-back, the centre midfielder tracking his runner, the forwards working to close defenders down... everyone plays a part."

The challenge now is to remain miserly at the back. And when it comes to winning silverware, Edwin says staying watertight is just as important as banging in the goals at the other end.

"We've had the Club World Cup and other competitions where we've conceded goals, but generally in the league things have gone very well this season.

"I just hope we can keep this kind of form going because it leads to bigger things at the end
