Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal insists they can go toe-to-toe with Manchester City.
United are at the Etihad tomorrow.
Van Gaal said: "I am proud of my players and that is the most important thing and when we play like a team then we have a big chance to win. Our goal is to win this game. It is possible, we are growing, we are developing ourselves, I think.
"What we have seen of Manchester City in the last matches was not so good. But that was also the case last year, Ryan Giggs has warned me. So you never know."
