Swansea boss Rodgers relishing Man Utd clash

Brendan Rodgers is relishing the opportunity for Premier League new boys Swansea to tackle Manchester United. While there are noticeable differences between the two clubs, Rodgers insists it is an opportunity to be grasped by his players.

He told the Mail on Sunday: "This club and this city have been waiting years to host such a great team, a great club and a genius of a manger.

"It will be a brilliant occasion and for me there's real excitement.

"We're in the business of winning, irrespective of style. We understand that we're a million miles away from other people in terms of budget, the size of the club and our resources. But we're here to compete."
