Richard Dunne has been MoM against Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal this season. He has been a revelation for City. At Old Trafford he was a colossus, and for once that is in a footballing sense, not in girth or beer belly.
City will be up for it too. I think they're a tricky side. They've been getting the better of United over the past couple of seasons, and I can see them doing it again.
Thing is, if after this weekend the gap comes down to 6 or 7 points, I think it's really, really on. United know they can take 3 off Chelsea at Old Trafford, and if Chelsea even draw a couple of games in a row, I think it will affect them. There's not too many winners at Chelsea, apart from Mourinho. He has instilled confidence in them, but that kind of confidence can be fragile when tested by seasoned winners like Manchester United.
Roy Keane is becoming the best player in the country again.
