Reina ready for Man U

Sunday is going to be the first chance for Pep Reina to show us that he is up to dealing with the pressures posed by a huge game. He has made a solid start and of course will be looking for another shut out:
"I'm happy with the three clean sheets in the Premiership, but I always say the most important thing is to win the games as well.
"If we can keep a clean sheet on Sunday then we will have more possibilities to win the game, that's the important thing.
"It will be tough because Manchester United are a good side and we have a lot of respect for them.
"But we are doing a lot of defensive work in training and I feel we are working well together.
"Clean sheets are positive because they help you win and we will be thinking the same on Sunday.
"I know all about the rivalry with Liverpool and the fact we are at Anfield makes it particularly important for the fans.
"And Manchester United had a difficult game against Villarreal. I hoped Villarreal would win because it's my old team and I have friends there, but they did well to get a draw."
Hopefully Reina will banish the memories of the last two seasons when goalkeeping errors have cost us dear against Man United.
Please post your opinions.
