Manchester United defender Victor Lindelof insists he has a 'good dialogue' with boss Jose Mourinho despite a challenging start to life at Old Trafford.
The Sweden international, who signed from Benfica in the summer for a fee of £30million, is yet to make his Premier League bow.
Apart from two Champions League appearances and 90 minutes in an EFL Cup win over Burton, there have been little signs of trust from Mourinho.

The Portuguese boss previously said he is simply giving him time to adapt to his new surroundings as well as making the adjustments to fit into his style of play before throwing him into the first team.
And despite being limited to reduced first-team opportunities since his move north, the 23-year-old insists he is not worried about it.
He told Swedish outlet Expressen: 'I feel no stress. I'm in one of the world's best clubs, it's clear that it's tough competition. But it may have the time it takes.'
When pressed about what was said in discussions with Mourinho about his situation, the centre back added: 'It's between me and him. But we talk and have a good dialogue.'

Lindelof is currently away on international duty with Sweden and is targeting a spot in next year's World Cup.
Sweden first host Luxembourg before making the trip to Holland for their final qualifier next week.
They currently sit second, a point behind France in Group A of the European qualifying section.
