QPR signing Sandro happy to make debut at Man Utd

Former Tottenham midfielder Sandro has no problem making his QPR debut at Manchester United.

The Rs will need all his energy on Sunday afternoon to contain a Manchester United side which could have all their £150m summer transfers on show in Radamel Falcao, Angel Di Maria, Luke Shaw, Ander Herrera, Daley Blind and Marcos Rojo.

Sandro sees reasons to be positive, though, and told the London Evening Standard: "Making my debut at Old Trafford? Wow! It won't be easy, but it's a good one. It's how I like to play, the kind of hard game I like. I prefer the toughest challenges.

"The names they have are crazy - Falcao, Di Maria - we don't have to look at them. We just have to do our job.

"It is better to play them now than in a few months' time because they haven't played together much. But if we switch off for one minute, they can kill us and it's goodbye. We have to be ready, be a team and not be afraid."
