Sir Alex Ferguson does not believe Barcelona's status as favourites ahead of this weekend's Champions League final offers them any advantage.
Manchester United find themselves in the rare position of being underdogs for Saturday's Wembley showpiece, even though they have just claimed a record 19th title.
However, with memories of the one-sided encounter in Rome two years ago when the Catalans eased to victory, it is Barca who are expected to win.
"There is no advantage," declared Ferguson.
He is good in talking. But this one is CLEAR. Barca has faced tougher teams in the knock out face than Man United. If they beat real, they easily run over them.
i wouldnt mind losing if we give it our best this time, for a CL final we were terrible in 2009, got to do way better on saturaday.
