I must be a good judge of character.Originally posted by Marky19 View PostReading boss Steve Coppell has spoken of his excitement about today's meeting between his current side and the club he spent watching as a child growing up on Merseyside.
Despite making his name as a player with Manchester United, Coppell was a regular at Anfield in his early years and even with Liverpool hitting top form in recent weeks, the Reading boss can't wait to see the current FA Cup holders running out at the Madejski Stadium at 3pm today.
"I look on this as a really exciting celebration," claims Coppell, whose side sits just four points outside a UEFA Cup placing In the Premiership. "Especially for me, having watched Liverpool as a boy - that club with a magnificent tradition.
"For us to welcome Liverpool to our stadium is a fabulous occasion. It's one we should not be intimidated by, no matter what happens, and I am really looking forward to it.
"They're hitting a rich vein of form at the right time, and the performance in midweek was outstanding. First and foremost they're effective, but also attractive as well.
"It will be a different team this weekend, but they've still got such depth. The prospect of many more millions in the summer means they look to be a club with a rich future - both immediate and long term.
If they play well they'll beat us, so we've got to stop them from doing that. We've got to play well and have a plan."
