Manchester United goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard has said that he is determined to prove his worth at Old Trafford.

The Dane made 13 appearances for the Red Devils last season, before an ankle injury in January saw him relinquish his place in the first team to David de Gea.

Now that he has recovered from that problem, Lindegaard, 28, said that he is now fully focused on reclaiming his position as United's number one.

"I played six or seven games in a row before I was injured and I think that speaks for itself," said Lindegaard.

"If I don't believe that I become number one, then no-one else can believe in it. So, of course I believe in it.

"I've said a million times, I'm not at United to pick my nose and I will never be at United just to sit on my money. I want to deserve the money I earn, and I want to deserve it by playing. I've never seen myself as a straight number two."

Lindegaard signed for United from Aalesund in 2010.
