Pearson: The players are ready for United

  • Intro:

    Leicester City coach Nigel Pearson looks ahead to his side's Premier League fixture with Manchester United at home on Sunday (19th September).

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English) Nigel Pearson, Leicester City coach:

    (on Sunday's visit of Manchester United and whether it's the most 'glamourous' fixture of the season)

    "Potentially, yeah. I think it's a fixture which a lot of people look for. Man United have been probably the dominant club domestically over the last twenty years and so although they go through, you can argue that they are going through a transitional period since Sir Alex Ferguson decided to step down, they are still a huge club, well they are massive, a world brand and I think they have made their intentions pretty clear in terms of how they have gone about their recruitment this summer and they've got someone in charge who has a thick enough skin, I think, to deal with the demands of that job. But for us as a club, it represents another great opportunity for our players to go out and play against a very good side."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Nigel Pearson, Leicester City coach:

    (on Leicester's Argentine signing Leonardo Ulloa and his impact on the club)

    "The bottom line is that they, the players that we've brought in, are the right people for us at the moment and Leo (Ulloa) has fitted right in exceptionally well. I'm delighted for him, not only is he a very good player, he is a really likeable individual as well, so he's fitted into what we have here and I think change... you've got to try and keep developing as a football club."
