The Sunderland defender has piled praise on United’ s leading front-men, claiming that they have formed the League’s strongest attack and will be tough to counter at the Theatre of Dreams.
Martin O’Neill’s troops recently earned a hard-fought win over Reading on Wednesday and finally scraped away with much needed three points.
The Black Cats have been struggling emphatically this season and only recently enjoyed victory after weeks of agony. However, the situation does not improve for the club, as they are due to battle with League leaders Manchester United at Old Trafford tomorrow.
Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson’s men have been in fine form and beat reigning champions Manchester City at home, opening a six point lead on top of the Premier League summit.
With the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nemanja-Vidic-c27550 returning for the 19-time English title winners, scoring against them will be a tough task and stopping them even more difficult.
United have the country’s most attacking duo, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Rooney-c36736, in their midst and stopping the world-class forwards is no mean feat, which couldn’t be done by the Citizens’ expensively assembled defence at the Etihad Stadium.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Carlos-c8346 Cuellar also believes in the same notion and claimed that the attackers will be hard to stop, especially given their prolific form in the last couple of games.
“You have to say Rooney and Van Persie are the best strikers in the Premier League at the moment. They showed that against Man City. They don’t need to play good football, they can score on just one counter-attack because their quality is unbelievable. It
will be tough on Saturday but it’s one of the games everyone looks forward to playing.”
Continuing, he added that following the comprehensive thrashing of Reading, the players will be focused and raring to go against the Red Devils, meaning that a positive result for the visitors was still very much in the balance.
“After getting the confidence boost of Tuesday, we have a chance in this game. I think there was confidence here even when we were losing. Against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 we lost because of a few mistakes, but the performance was still very good,” Cuellar was quoted as
saying to the media.
