"We have had a chance to have a look at very one else now this season because we are well into the second round of fixtures. I think we have probably been the best team in England, other than Chelsea," said the England international.
"They are consistent and well ahead of the chasing pack but I don't think that they are a better team than us in one off situation, as we have proved twice this season.
"They're always great games to play in and this one will be massive. Who knows what a win might do for us, but that will be what we are aiming for."
