Dundee United midfielder David Babunski commented that the team’s strong start to the current season was “maybe beyond a lot of people’s expectations.” After securing the Championship title last season, United brought in numerous new players over the summer, among them the 30-year-old former Barcelona youth graduate, Babunski. The North Macedonia international has become a crucial figure for the Tangerines, who currently sit fourth in the Premiership ahead of their Saturday fixture at Motherwell. “It seems like we all clicked in from the very beginning and maybe beyond a lot of people’s expectations given the circumstances,” said Babunski. “But I think we managed to bring together a good, strong squad with quality players and also very good characters. So there are several reasons why we are where we are right now but we don’t want to get complacent.” “We saw that we have good reasons to believe we can push even further.” Babunski has adapted well to life in the City of Discovery since his arrival on a one-year agreement from Hungarian club Mezokovesdi Sport Egyesulet. “I tell my wife from time to time, ‘See, I told you it was the right decision to come here’ from some other options that might have been on the table,” he added. “It has been a long time since I was searching for an opportunity like this in a scenario like this and I am very happy that it is going well, I am enjoying it a lot.” Post navigation Iwan Roberts Criticizes Swansea City’s Contract Management for Ben Cabango and Harry Darling Liverpool Manager Matt Beard Discusses Team’s Future After Candid Meeting
