Ahead of tomorrow night’s crucial game against Basel, Phil Jones has claimed the pressure on them to win and qualify will have a positive impact on them.
“It (pressure) does bring the best out of me,” said Jones. “As a group of players we thrive on it. Pressure comes with every game. We are at a massive club so we are used to it. Tomorrow is no different. We have prepared right and hopefully we will get the three points.”
The manager has echoed these sentiments, claiming we have enough experience in the squad to deal with the game.
“The pressure won’t affect us,” said Ferguson. “Look at the number of big games these players play in. Every year for the last few years they have been involved in finals and semi-finals and quarter-finals and big games in the Premier League. Tomorrow is exactly the same situation. It is another big game, but we have a strong squad and that squad will see us through without question.”
