The Irish International reiterated that the Baggies won’t be that easy to overcome when they visit the Theatre of Dreams today and that United will need to be at their very best in order to secure a positive result.
Despite their recent wins, concerns continue to linger over Manchester United’s below-par defence, which has leaked unnecessary goals by the dozen this season.
Although the Red Devils have managed to come out on top in most of their games this term, they have struggled to contain their opponents when it comes to managing the backline. Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson has already likened the defensive record to a cartoon and if
the match against Newcastle United was anything to come by, the 19-time English champions could be in for another wild ride today.
West Bromwich Albion have been hovering close to the European places this campaign and with an impressive run of form under their belt, no one would bet against them securing a UEFA Europa League spot when things come to an end in May.
With such lofty aspirations and above all the personnel to match those claims, Steve Clarke’s men are a force to be reckoned with and will look to gain all three points today at Old Trafford.
Defensive stalwart http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jonny-Evans-c19085 claims has now warned his side to be wary of their opponents and be at their very best all over the pitch, or otherwise they will struggle to break down the spirited Hawthorns outfit.
"We can't take anything for granted. I remember a couple of years ago West Brom drew with us 2-2 at home [in October 2010] and it was a tough game. We played them towards the end of last season and found that they were a really hard team to break down,”
said the centre-back while talking to the media.
“What they do is they get the two defensive units really tight. It forces you to go wide and try to get crosses into the box. They are very hard to break down,” Evans was quoted as saying while speaking to reporters before the crunch Premier League tie.
