Sven ready for Man United

08 February 2008 - 00:05

Sven Goran Eriksson has admitted his side are ready for the Premiership battle with Man Utd at the weekend as his Man City take on the Premiership champions with several players missing or recovering after international duties.

  • Chelsea join Liverpool & Man Utd in race to sign 26yo
  • Barcelona identify Arsenal midfielder as key transfer target

  • "It's not ideal but United are in the same boat," Eriksson told the club's official website. "They have a lot of players away this week.



    "But we have to live with it as well and not complain about it.



    "The alternative is to buy players who are not international standard, and I don't think that's a good idea.



    "United did not start this season so well but now they are playing brilliant football, and either they or Arsenal will win the league, without a doubt.



    "We have not played our best in the last two or three games, and it is time to get back to that to get something from the game on Sunday.



    "We need to learn from how we played against Arsenal last week.



    "It's going to be difficult but we're going to try to play at our best."
