Gary Johnson concerned about "star-struck" Yeovil squad

Yeovil Town manager Gary Johnson admits he concerns about his players being overawed by Manchester United's visit in the FA Cup.

Yeovil Town boss Gary Johnson has warned his players against being "star-struck" when Manchester United visit in the FA Cup on Sunday.

Yeovil are currently bottom of League One, but the manager has told his charges that he doesn't want them being overawed when the likes of Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie arrive at Huish Park.

He told the Western Gazette: "Being star-struck by Manchester United is a concern and you can't stop human nature.

"This is a one-off game which some of the lads aren't going to have again. I'm sure they will think: 'can I get Wayne Rooney's boots?' You know that's going to happen.

"But we need to make sure we get into game mode. I don't mind it after the final whistle, but I will have the raging hump if my players swap shirts before then. I don't want the lads taking selfies with Rooney."

United are currently third in the Premier League.
