TORONTO - P.K. Subban knows hes under the microscope playing for the Montreal Canadiens. After signing a US$72-million, eight-year contract, the star defenceman doesnt think much will change in that respect. I dont think (the microscope) can get any bigger, Subban said. Going into Wednesday nights season opener at the Montreal Canadiens, Subban is ready for criticism to continue. Just not from Habs fans. I dont ever remember getting scrutiny from the fans, Subban said after the teams morning skate at Air Canada Centre. The fans have always been supportive. Now as far as critics go, everybody has critics. But the fans have never been a critic of me. I think theyve been only supportive and I hope that continues. Subban is one of two rotating alternate captains along with Max Pacioretty, and that brings more of a leadership role for the 25-year-old defenceman. You have to conduct yourself the way that got yourself, individually, success and more importantly got the team success, Subban said. I think theres new opportunities. I dont think that should change the way you are or the way you play the game. I think its just added responsibility. Youre just more aware of what your role is on this team. While the spotlight is on Subban and will remain there, hes at least trying to spread it around. Its not just me out there, he said. We have a wealth of veteran players on our team, a wealth of talent in this organization thats going to help us win hockey games. Its not just about one player. Authentic Robin Lehner Jersey .

Van Dijk moved to St Marys on Deadline Day last September for a fee in the region of £11.5m and has put in a number of impressive performances for the club so far this season.The Holland international was an ever-present in Southamptons run of seven straight Premier League clean sheets earlier this year and has helped his side record the joint-third best defensive record in the top-flight alongside Arsenal and Watford, and only behind Tottenham and Manchester United. And Koeman insists his fellow countryman is crucial to Southampton as they battle to qualify for Europe.

Its different from the Premier League.It makes it a little more tricky but he had experience of playing against Barcelona in the Champions League, so in the end there was no doubt about it.Meanwhile, Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher echoed Koemans praise of Van Dijk, claiming Southamptons defensive record is evidence of the Dutchmans growing influence. Jamie Carragher thinks Van Dijk has been outstanding for Siants so far this season Carragher said: Obviously I look at centre-backs in the league and I think he has been fantastic. The defensive record shows that. When he first came in I thought he was more interested in playing on the ball but hes been outstanding defensively.
