Brendan: You fans can make City think
You always talk about the supporters in very descriptive terms - 'army of supporters' and the 'cauldron' of Anfield. What would your message be to them ahead of the game?
It's to continue to do what they do. I look at Anfield now and in particular the last couple of games, it has been a real throwback. The Kop is just in full bloom with the colours and the scarves and the flags, and the noise has just gone up another level. When it's like that, there's no greater place. As a manager, I'm so proud to manage the team in those conditions. If we can get that right from driving in - the banners and flags going in - it gives great confidence for our players, but it can also give the other team something to think about. So hopefully they can get into the stadium very early and get the atmosphere right up, so by the time kick-off comes the team is ready to flow with them and together we can get the result that we want.
