Sir Alex Ferguson has come out and compared Stoke City to Wimbledon due to their similar route one style of football as Manchester United prepare to take on the Potters at Old Trafford in the English Premier League....
The English Premier League champions are set to take on Stoke City on Tuesday night at Old Trafford in what is expected to be a stern test for their goalkeeper http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-de-Gea-c10463 due to Stoke’s long ball game but Sir Alex Ferguson has
already come out and said that he admires Stoke’s style of play as Manchester United are prepared to take all three points against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Tony-c35440 Pulis’ men. Manchester United only earned a draw earlier on in the season when they travelled to the Britannia stadium to
take on Stoke City.
United also lost their latest competitive encounter against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 will
be keen to take all three points from Stoke City on Tuesday evening as they need to keep pace with Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table.
Sir Alex said in his latest press conference, "You know what Tony Pulis' teams are like; they're always the same with one hundred per cent commitment. They all get stuck in and you have to cope with that. I quite enjoy that. When
we used to play Wimbledon, at the beginning when they first came into our division, nobody enjoyed playing against them.”
He added, "But then I started and my team started to enjoy it because it was a challenge, a physical challenge in the way they played and a physical challenge in terms of trying to take control of the possessions and play your
football. Stoke are a different team altogether from Wimbledon, obviously, but they still have the same quality of never giving in; they keep going, so it's a good challenge for us."
Sir Alex will hope that his team can cope with the aerial threat of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Peter-Crouch-c29741 who will most definitely lead Stoke’s offensive line. It is vital for Manchester United to take all three points against Stoke City as any other result
coupled with a win for Manchester City in their next league match will result in a massive gulf at the top of the league table.
