The Manchester City midfielder is anticipating a reaction from Sir Alex Ferguson’s Manchester United when City take their neighbours on in the F.A Cup matchup on Sunday....
James Milner is anticipating a backlash from Manchester United when they take on Manchester City on Sunday in their next F.A Cup tie. Both the Manchester clubs, who met earlier on in the season in the Community Shield as well as
the English Premier League tie at Old Trafford, are at the top of the Premier League standings at the moment.
City lead the Premier League table by three points due to Manchester United’s failure to win against Newcastle United in their latest Premier League clash. In the match at Old Trafford, between the two Manchester giants, City came
out as comprehensive winners as they embarrassed the Red Devils by a final score line of 6-1. Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson termed the loss as the most embarrassing one of his career; therefore he will put out a Manchester United side on Sunday which can salvage some
pride against a rampant Manchester City side which are in a high run of form.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/James-Milner-c17706 was at the centre of the City side which gained six goals to one win over United but the former Aston Villa midfielder is adamant that United should be respected as they will come back with a vengeance on Sunday despite
suffering from two losses in a row in their last two Premier League encounters.
Milner stated, “That will have hurt them bad. Everyone, from the players to the management, will be more than up for it. As much enjoyment as we got from it, they probably felt three times as much pain. We have got to be aware
of that. It’s down to us to put another good performance and build on our [3-0] win over http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 [on Tuesday].”
He added, “We want to defend our title. It’s nice to be able to say that, but there is no tougher game than against Manchester United. After the last time we played them, we know they are going to fly out the traps. They will want
to get one over us. We need to make sure we match that determination and will to win that they will give. Hopefully we can then go and play our football.”
