Champions League: Como-Manchester United on the pitch on Wednesday at 6.45pm LIVE

"A historic day, once again. It's a special moment we're experiencing in recent months. Staff and players must adapt well, being aware of the importance. United are a great team, they have great players, with a crazy history. We'll try to win as always." These are the words of Cesc Fabregas on the eve of the Champions League match against Manchester United who face Como at the Sinigaglia.

"Manchester is like when we play against Inter, Milan, Juve. I talk about what the other team does and how we can hurt them. If I say every time to be careful of Manchester, the players enter the pitch with fear. The coach must always give confidence to his team, I feel strong with my players. We can win if we do things the way they should be done, if we think that the opponents are superior it will be more difficult." Como coach Cesc Fabregas, on the eve of the Champions League, asks his team to enter the field against Manchester United without conditions and without awe but only to play on an equal footing and in the best possible way.

The secret of Fabregas' Como is in the humility and bonds with the group, not colleagues but a family. On the eve of the Champions League match against Manchester United, the manager analyzes the situation sincerely, in his own way: "We tried to bring talent into the team, young people that perhaps the general public didn't know about. The president gave me his trust, he handed me the keys to the football part, there is a very important communication between us. He has become a friend, almost a relative. When you work like this, even with Ludi, you have the feeling that everything becomes more and more important. We are a family and even when we lose I see that the fans 'embrace' us, this is special and we have to continue like this while remaining humble." "I'm not talking about those who play and don't play, not even the team knows a difficult time. Do you think you have a different approach to the game? "Tomorrow we will all stand on the edge of the penalty area and park the bus. Jokes aside, we will try to play our football. We always ask ourselves 'How do you want to lose?'. Playing our football, respecting the opponent."
