Beating City could be our biggest achievement, claims Ferguson

The former Aberdeen boss claims that if his side get three points on Sunday, it would be regarded as one of their greatest moments in the League.
With the whole of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 gearing up for the Manchester derby this weekend, the potentially explosive tie could signal the end of an era if United are humbled by their opponents yet again.
The Reds were soundly beaten with a 6-1 scoreline at Old Trafford last season and echoes of that loss have murmured throughout the current campaign.
While Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 has managed to strengthen the attack quite a bit, the defence has been clearly struggling this time around and have conceded unnecessary goals even against low level competition.
Pressure will be on the Scot’s side to come out on top and regain their crown once more, but it will be far from an easy achievement, as the hosts have been rock solid at the back and look threatening while going forward.
City’s recent exit in the UEFA Champions League will have dented their morale, but Ferguson reiterated that coming out on top at the Etihad Stadium will rank as one of the biggest achievements United have had in the Premiership.
"If we win (on Sunday) it will be one of our best ever results. They are a really good, powerful team with massive players. It won't be easy and if we defend like we did at Reading we'll be in trouble. The important thing for us is to take lessons from the mistakes we're making and do something about it. We need to find a solution,” Fergie was quoted as saying while speaking to the media.
Even his opposing number, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mancini-c23323 has been eyeing the prize and has urged his troops to get over their European woes and challenge not only for the League, but also for the F.A Cup, which is yet to start.
"It's clear the season isn't finished. We have the Premier League and FA Cup to go for, but we must work more now. What we're doing is not enough," Mancini said while talking to reporters ahead of the tie.
