Manchester City midfielder Fernandinho has slaughtered Manchester United going into tonight's derby. City thumped United 4-1 earlier in the season.
Brazil ace Fernandinho said: "I was surprised how bad United were. It was the first time I'd played them after joining City.
"It's a club with a lot of history, with very good players, they were the champions - so yes I was surprised at how badly they played that day and how easily we won.
"Maybe they are still hurting, but the game against us was a long time ago. But the situation is different now because we are fighting for the title and they are not, they are maybe just fighting for honour now.
"So it's a different situation to the game earlier in the season. A derby is the same whichever country you are in - each team wants to win."
