"So I want to say all the players are good signings and they are going to help us a lot. "As a player and for a club, you are always going to have ups and downs. I think the last few years was a little bit down for the club but since last year, and this year, I hope it is going be up for the club. "We are going to try to do our best to bring the club on the level it was at before. It is always hard but we will try and do our best." United are away to Swansea City on Saturday as they seek back-to-back victories to open the season.</blockquote>
