Owen salutes fellow newcomers
Owen Hargreaves is full of praise for how his fellow new signings
have overcome language barriers to adapt to life at United.
The England midfielder is the only English-speaking new arrival
this summer, while Nani, Anderson and Carlos Tevez are still
learning the clubs mother tongue.
Despite the potential for communication difficulties, the trio have
all settled into life around Carrington, and the Reds season has
burst spectacularly into life in recent weeks.
Nani, Anderson and Carlos dont speak a lot of English, but I
think they fit in extremely well, get along with everyone very well
and theyve been fabulous, he told MUTV.
Carlos, this month, has been exceptional, his work rate is great
and he and Wazza complement each other very well. As long as were
scoring goals and winning games, I think everyones happy.
Hargreaves made his fourth appearance for the club against
Middlesbrough last weekend, and he admits that it can be hard to
maintain his discipline while surrounded by the perpetual motion of
the Reds attacking talent.
At times you want to get involved, he conceded. My job is to
keep it simple and protect the back four, but you kind of get
sucked in because everyones running around you!
