Richie Wellens, President of Leytun Orient, hopes to get a set of revenge against Pep Guardiola and Manchester City when the two sides meet in the fourth round of the FA Cup tomorrow.
Wales is a lifelong supporter in Manchester United and still has a seasonal ticket at Old Trafford. He says that the success of United in cities in recent years has sometimes made his life miserable.
He said: “I must say that Pep has caused me a lot of pain in the past, my children and I, with their quality.
“But it is the best of the best. It is a genius, it is a pioneer, a lot of coaches look at him. What he did, especially in English football, has changed many coaches' thinking.”

Orient sits sixth in the first league and continues to make strong progress under Wales, but it accepts a struggle with City – despite all its problems this season – is a tremendous step in quality.
He said, “We cannot wait.” “It is a good thing for the club and we have a lot of talented young players who really grew this season, so they face some of the best players in the world is good for them.
“It is more important to us than trying to make a show and stay in the game as much as possible. City is a great soccer team, but there are some weaknesses around them at the present time. Can we try to expose them as possible?
“In terms of today, this club was almost launched from work six or seven years ago until we are in the place where we are in the league, and we may host the best team in the Premier League is a great testimony to the club and how it has come.
“Analysts were in their element this week, where they watched PSG, Arsenal and Liverpool clips. We have seen some weaknesses there, but they play against the supreme opposition. It is a matter of whether we are able to benefit from it remotely.”
Manchester City is heading to London to spend the second weekend in a row and is expected to perform better than they did in losing 5-1 against Arsenal in the UAE last Sunday.
City showed their ingenuity against the low league sides in the third round, however, the neighbors Salvord City 8-0 in Al-Ittihad.
Orient took a more circle with victories over Boriham Wood, their son and Derby.
