Burnley midfielder Arfield: I won't be over-awed facing Man City

Burnley midfielder Scott Arfield insists they can upset Manchester City.

The Scot insists he won't be star-struck when he faces the Premier League champions at Turf Moor today.

"It's not really my bag to be over-awed by a player, or a club or an occasion.

"Some people find it quite difficult but last season every game was like a cup final for me to try to stay in the team. It's been the same here.

"The calibre of player you come against is fantastic but you can't let the name on the back of the shirt get the better of you before you've played. If you do you'll come unstuck.

"Every game is enjoyable in this division but you want to get on the ball and show what you can do against the big boys."
