Stank has no fear of Devils
Friday 2 January, 2009

Inter midfielder Dejan Stankovic insists he is happier facing Manchester United in the Champions League than Liverpool.

The Italian champions must negotiate the European champions if they are to succeed in their main mission this season.

While the draw looks daunting, Serbian star Stankovic is just glad the Beneamata aren't taking on the side that knocked them out last year.

“I am not worried about Manchester United,” Stankovic maintained in Il Giornale. “I was scared of facing Liverpool.

“Liverpool are a side of the highest level and they have something extra in Steven Gerrard.

“When you play against Liverpool you see how Gerrard drags the team forward. He is a great leader.

“We are amongst the favourites for the Champions League but it's a long season and everyone is talking about Barcelona.”
