Coventry boss Mark Robins has scoffed at the 바카라derisory바카라 criticism of Manchester United, insisting his side바카라s FA Cup semi-final opponents remain the biggest football club on the planet. (More Football News)
Robins began his career at Old Trafford and his history with the club is firmly intertwined with the cup, with his third round winner against Nottingham Forest in 1990 often cited as the goal that saved Sir Alex Ferguson from the sack.
Ferguson바카라s latest successor in the hot seat, Erik ten Hag, could do with firming up his own position and could find himself on extremely rocky ground if the Red Devils were denied a shot at silverware by Championship opposition.
They are winless in four games since reaching the last four with a penalty shootout victory over Liverpool and sit seventh in the Premier League table, but Robins believes their problems have been overstated.
바카라People, pundits, are talking in a derisory way about Manchester United and what they바카라re doing, how they바카라re performing,바카라 he said.
바카라For people who are talking about Manchester United are this or that, or they concede lots of shots: you바카라re talking about a team that is full of talented players, top international players. We know they are clearly favourites to win this game, by a million miles, simple as that.
바카라They can hurt anybody on their day. The game against Liverpool their goals were outstanding. So you바카라ve got a lot of things to consider, especially as a Championship club going up against the biggest club in the world.
바카라For Manchester United, this is a normal occasion. They play at Wembley a lot of times, there바카라s some England internationals there and other internationals who바카라ve played at Wembley on numerous occasions. It바카라s an expectation for them and their supporters; for us it바카라s slightly different.바카라
The Sky Blues booked their place in the last four with a dramatic 3-2 win over Wolves, with stoppage-time strikes from Ellis Simms and Haji Wright completing a remarkable upset.
The euphoria of that result has not carried in to their league form though, with three losses in their last four games leaving their play-off hopes 바카라 and regular games against the likes of United 바카라 all but over.
With that in mind, Robins has urged everyone connected to the club to make the most of the experience in front of them.
바카라We바카라ve already given the fans a special occasion getting there. Being in the national stadium with Manchester United, it doesn바카라t get much bigger than that,바카라 he said.
바카라It바카라s a brilliant opportunity for everyone and there바카라s a lot of excitement around the city. There is a global reach there for Coventry City, the world will be tuning in and it바카라s a great occasion for all of our players.바카라
One player who will not be part of City바카라s big day is Kasey Palmer, suspended after picking up a booking for encroaching on the pitch to celebrate the late triumph over Wolves.
바카라In the moment it바카라s the reaction we all made, you don바카라t necessarily think too much about it,바카라 Said Robins.
바카라It was really poor but the rules are the rules and you바카라ve got to abide by them. Unfortunately for him and for us, we can바카라t use him.바카라
