Rory Kavanagh says there are "threats everywhere" in the Kerry team.

Speaking ahead of the All-Ireland SFC final, the long-serving Donegal midfielder noted: "We watched the game against Mayo and David Moran had a horse of a game in the middle of the field with Anthony Maher.

"James O'Donoghue and Kieran Donaghy have given them a new lease of life at the edge of the square. There are threats everywhere and a lot of their players have won All-Irealnds as well.

"Midfield, from my own personal point of view, is going to have a big bearing on the game.

"They won't fear us and you just have to go in and perform on the day. Whoever makes the least mistakes and dominates will come out on top. Playing Kerry on All-Ireland final day - it doesn't get much better than that."

The St. Eunan's clubman, who has put his early-season injury problems and the disappointment of being sent off the Allianz League Division 2 final against Monaghan behind him, is hoping Donegal's 2012 All-Ireland quarter-final victory over the Kingdom will give them a psychological edge.

"They came at us very hard that day and possibly with more composure they could have beaten us. But definitely getting over the line was a big, big one for us because we had beaten a big power in Gaelic football and it definitely gave us confidence going in to (face) Cork," he added.
