Former Republic of Ireland international Kevin Kilbane has warned Manchester United that they risk seeing Daley Blind roasted by Jesus Navas later today.
Navas could go up against Blind in the Manchester derby at Old Trafford, with Manchester City seeking to end their poor run of form by putting Manchester United to the sword.
Kilbane believes that the Citizens could have real joy with Navas against Blind and has warned Manchester United of the effect of leaving the Dutchman isolated against the Spaniard this afternoon.
The ex-Ireland star told the BBC: "Jesus Navas against Daley Blind… he could roast him."
Kilbane also advised Manchester City to turn to James Milner, a player he feels has been the Citizens' main man throughout the course of the campaign.

He added: "James Milner has been City's key player this season. I can't understand why he can't fit into the side and they've let his contract run down."
Manchester City head into the Manchester derby sitting one point and one place below their local rivals in the Premier League standings.
The top three clubs qualify automatically to the group stage of the Champions League, while the fourth placed club must enter at the playoff round.
