REVENGE

Kieron Dyer has a special incentive for Saturday’s match:

"The visit of Manchester United is always a big game but
obviously there's the small matter of last season's defeat
preying on our minds. It goes without saying that we're all
fired up for this match and there's no doubt we owe them.
It's the first real home game of the season and the
supporters will be right behind us - we don't want to let
them down.

"But I'm confident it's the right time to play Manchester
United, as no side is at its best at the start of the
season."

Dyer was also caught up in the Ronaldo hype saying:

"Hugo Viana has told me he's an unbelievable talent.

"He certainly looks quite special and while it will take
some player to replace David Beckham, I've no doubt he will
become a big star. Hopefully he will be on the bench!"
