Jim White: Now Manchester United manager Adam Deverell has spoke of his disappointment at his sides early exit from the Captial One cup midweek, but says his team has to put that result behind them and gear up for a tough test against Liverpool on Saturday.
Heading to press conference........
Press How bad is the injury to Nick Powell?
Deverell Its a twisted knee, not too bad he will miss 2-3 weeks so we look to have him back available to us after the international break.
Press You go to Anfield Saturday lunchtime, a ground where you've won just once in your last 5 visits in the league. Why do you feel the teams underperformed there in recent years?
Deverell Well if anything i feel alot of it is down to bad luck, we've played some good football there in the past few seasons but havent managed to come away with the 3 points. Liverpool are a well organised, solid team, yes they haven't started well to this campaign but I don't like to take that into account as with big games like these form isn't a problem as we've found out before.
Press You enjoy a 100% start to the season in the league including a very impressive 4-1 victory against Arsenal, do you feel your team has taken to you?
Deverell I certainly hope so (laughs all round) It was always going to be a tough job replacing a manager with the popularity & success of Sir Alex but i've come in and i hope to take this massive club forward my first aim is to take our crown back!
Press Thats interesting but how do you think Roberto Mancini will react to those words?
Deverell I have alot of respect for the guy and for what he's done but im a very
ruthless guy, Manchester United possess a very
ruthless squad of players and come May we are going to
RUTHLESSLY bring the Premier League trophy back to Old Trafford.
