Harry Wilson is aiming to get his own back on the Manchester United fans giving him abuse when Bournemouth face Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side on Saturday lunchtime.
The on-loan Liverpool midfielder knows he is set to get a fierce reception from the travelling United fans when the Premier League match kicks off at the Vitality Stadium at 12.30pm.
However, Wilson says that is going to spur him on to perform as he heads into the game with three goals in nine appearances for the Cherries so far this season.
“It’s part and parcel of football," Wilson told the Bournemouth Daily Echo .
“I’m definitely expecting a bit of stick, like I was when we played Everton at the beginning of the season.
“That comes with it – being on loan from Liverpool and United being their big rivals – it’s going to come my way.
“Whether it’s on social media or in the games, you are going to get that. You just can’t let it affect you on the pitch, hopefully I can do my job and maybe get a goal.”
Wilson scored a stunning free-kick against United when on loan at Derby County last season before the Championship side won on penalties in the Carabao Cup.
And when asked whether receiving stick from opposing fans drove him on, Wilson said: “Yeah, definitely. When you are getting stick it is always good.
“If I score, I’ll get my own back. Or if we win, that will feel good for me. It definitely drives you forward.”
