Speaking to the Swiss champions, the former Inter man (who was sold to the Potters for €15 million) claimed that the Red Devils’ defence could be a problem:

“If they do [ have a weakness] it’s with their defence. That’s what our goals have shown. If you play quickly and bravely, their defenders will have problems. At the back, Manchester are vulnerable.”
