"There is more pressure at United, without a doubt.  Even if we drew there, it was the end of the world. 
"I don't keep up to date with what's going on there, I look out for results but nothing more.  I wouldn't go back. 
"I'm having more fun, that's a huge part of football.  It's tough at United and in training it's very serious. 
"I'm not saying it's not professional at Birmingham and I don't want to be professional - there is more of a relaxed atmosphere here.
"It's up to me to show United what they're missing."
