Davis confident for United visit

last updated Friday 15th December 2000, 1:28 PM
Sean Davis says Fulham learnt enough from their midweek trip to Anfield to give them even more confidence when they face Manchester United.

Fulham held Liverpool 0-0 for 90 minutes in the Worthington Cup quarter-final and only lost in extra-time. However, they could pick up an even bigger scalp when they face United in the FA Cup third round in January.

Davis said: "When the FA Cup third round game against Manchester United does come along we will be looking forward to it. They are the best side in the country.

"The league is our main priority and we have got to play Tranmere, Crewe and then a big game against Watford before the cup match next month. But the first 90 minutes against Liverpool will give us confidence and we will be at home, where we knock the ball about and create lots of chances.

"I think we did ourselves and the First Division justice in the game at Anfield. I did not feel there was any sort of gap between us and them. We held our own for 90 minutes and in a league game we would have got an away draw. So taking on United after that shouldn't faze us. We are looking forward to it."
