Robbie Simpson eyes second Manchester United upset

Robbie Simpson tells Sports Mole that beating Manchester United with Cambridge United "would be the number one win of [his] career".

Robbie Simpson is eager to secure a second shock victory over Manchester United when Cambridge United play host to Louis van Gaal's men in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

Back in 2007, the 29-year-old featured for Championship outfit Coventry City as they dumped a United side, which contained the likes of Gerard Pique, Michael Carrick and Nani, out of the League Cup at Old Trafford.

"They had a decent team out. It was my full debut and it was certainly a special moment in my career which I still relive to this day, to be honest. It's not often that your full debut is at Old Trafford and to beat them is even rarer," Simpson told Sports Mole.

On Friday, Simpson, who is now in his second spell at Cambridge, is expected to be included in Richard Money's starting lineup for the Red Devils' visit to the Abbey Stadium.

Looking ahead to the tie, the striker insists that a win would mean even more to him than the one that he achieved eight years ago with the Sky Blues.

"To beat them twice would be a major achievement and with a club like Cambridge, where I started my career, would be the number one win of my career. It's a club that means so much to me," he added.
