The Norwich manager Paul Lambert
“Some teams are beaten before they even go there, but I will have my own way to deal with that,” Lambert said. “We have to go there with a belief, because if you don’t you can get turned over.
Leon Barnett, Norwich defender
“We will go to Manchester United and do our best. That is all we can do. It is not going to be easy because they have star quality players, but all the lads are looking forward to it. It’s good to know we can go to Old Trafford with a smile on our faces. The shackles are off for us now.”
