Dan Burn talks about how Man City 'demoralise' teams but says Newcastle aim to emulate them one day

Dan Burn is wary of Manchester City's possession game ahead of Newcastle United's latest test in the Premier League. The £13million January signing and his team-mates will be tasked with trying to halt City's title bid but knows Pep Guardiola's side are more than capable of making it a long afternoon - despite their pain in Madrid this week.

Burn made a good account of himself against Liverpool, winning a host of aerial challenges, yet needs no reminding of the tough mission in Manchester today.

When asked the difference between City and the Reds, Burn replied: "The difference with City is that they can demoralise you by keeping the ball constantly and you could probably not touch it for 90 minutes. But you still think you might have a chance against Liverpool by the speed at which they counter, this is probably the big difference between the two teams."
