Wigan winger McManaman insists Man Utd upset can happen

Wigan Athletic winger Callum McManaman has encouraged his team to express themselves on Monday night against Manchester United.

McManaman hopes that League One Wigan will be able to compete against the Premier League giants.

As they look to book an unlikely spot in the fourth round, McManaman believes playing their natural game is the key for Wigan.

"I have great memories [of the FA Cup] but we're looking forward to Monday," said McManaman, who was man of the match in the 2013 FA Cup final against Manchester City.

"All the lads are buzzing.

"The atmosphere around the place is really good. I don't think we could've got a better draw to be honest. We've got nothing to lose. We just need to go out there, express ourselves and be confident."
