Zlatan Ibrahimovic has stated that the Premier League is overrated and that he could have become a legend of the division had he arrived 10 years earlier than he did.
The Sweden international scored 28 goals in 46 appearances in his debut season and won the League Cup and Europa League, the top goalscorer for United that season.
Speaking to 'FourFourTwo,' Ibrahimovic said: "People said, 'You don't need to go to England, because if you fail in England, people will always say you weren't good enough'. Everybody was against it. And guess what? That made me motivated. That gave me adrenaline.
"I liked the Premier League. It gets a lot of attention, although I feel the quality is a little bit overrated – the individual quality, the technical part.
"As I said when I was in England, you're lucky I didn't come 10 years ago, because if I did what I did at 35 years old, imagine it if I was 25. Then it would have been a different story.
"I came there and they said I came in a wheelchair. All the people that talked, in the whole Premier League, I put them in a wheelchair. That's what I did."
A bad knee injury cut Ibra's time at Old Trafford short.
He added: "I'm super proud and super happy that I went to United – it was the right club.
"We won, and I did what I did before I got injured. I had an excellent time – great memories. I'm attached to United forever. The supporters are amazing: wherever I went, I saw red shirts, which was fantastic.
"It's a very important moment in my career."
