Anderson: injuries destroyed his career at "Man United" club

Anderson believed that the end of his career at "Manchester United" team was greatly affected by the injuries he experienced. On Tuesday, the Brazilian signed a four-year contract with his native country's "Internacional" club and will leave England after spending eight seasons there. The 26-year-old defender won four "Premier" league titles with the team since 2007, but was often sidelined due to various injuries. "I played in Manchester for eight years. I would like to thank the club. During the first four seasons there, I won everything: Champions League, "Premier" league and Club World Cup," - Anderson told Guardian. "I experienced a knee injury and returned to the field too soon. I played, but the knees were not equally healthy and the injury recurred." The footballer, previously criticized for his weight, added: "Players are always criticized. In the past, I had quite a few injuries, but now I have to remain silent and respond to critics on the field."
