QPR striker Cisse: Man City trip biggest game of career

QPR striker Djibril Cisse says today's game at Manchester City is the biggest of his career.

The Rs need a result against the champions-elect to stay up.

"I'm trying not to think about it but I know we are fighting for our lives," said Frenchman Cisse, 30. "That is why this game is in my top three most important games ever in my career.

"The other two were positive games, the Champions League final with Liverpool and the French Cup final with Auxerre. If you lose you have another chance the next season.

"But if you are relegated then your chance has gone for at least a year to play in the Premier League again and it could be a long wait before you get another chance. It's a different kind of pressure."
