Bournemouth midfielder Christie: Man Utd clash a big one

Bournemouth midfielder Ryan Christie says they can confirm their improvement this season with victory over Manchester United.

The Cherries host United later tonight.

He told the Daily Echo: “The last month or so where our home record's been very, very good, so we're looking forward to being back at home.

“Always good when you play against the big teams, it's always got a bit more.

“I think we're just desperate to finish the season as well as possible now. That starts (against Manchester United).

“It's a big one to be fair.

“I was a big Manchester United fan growing up – Sir Alex Ferguson, obviously.

“I always absolutely love playing there the last couple of years I've got the chance.

“So to win in the manner we did earlier in the season was nice.

“A lot's changed since then to be fair, so I'm sure it'll be a different game come back Saturday, but looking forward to it."
