Planet Swans ArchivesLast season’s league double over the Red Devils will live long in the mind of those that saw it and on Sunday we have the chance to pit our unbeaten league record against theirs with the prize for thee victors being a place right towards the top of the Premier League as we head into the first international break of the season.
Many told us last year that Man Utd were a shade of the team that won so many Premier League titles which is true but they still finished in the top four of the league and by the time they arrive on Sunday then they should also be in the group stages of the Champions League for this season.
That should give you a good idea of just how well we did to do the league double over them but with them spending plenty of money to strengthen their squad this summer it is going to be a tough test for us on Sunday but one that we are more than capable of coming through.
It will need us to be at the top of our form but we have been there this season and I firmly believe we can go into the game with every chance of causing another upset, something we have become quite used to in this division.
Swans keeper Lukasz Fabianski knows it won’t be easy “I think we are looking at a different United team this year” he said.
“They have made some big signings and they have changed a bit.
“Hopefully we will prepare ourselves well this week and we will be ready.
“But just looking at what they have done so far this season you can see they are getting good results.
“They have got off to a really good start which is a difference compared to last year. I think they are a team who have improved.”
