Louis Saha admits he was frustrated after being left out of the
starting line-up to face Sporting Lisbon, but he says Sir Alex
Ferguson made the right decision for the team.
The 29-year-old Frenchman, still waiting for his first Reds start
since February, was praised by Sir Alex this week for his physical
presence and ability to lead the line, his qualities playing off
perfectly against the likes of Wayne Rooney and Cristiano
Ronaldo.
"Everyone gets frustrated if they're named on the bench in a
Champions League game," he said. "Difficult choices always have to
be made and I think the manager made the right decision. It was a
difficult game on a difficult pitch so it was a great win in the
end."
The Reds have become masters of the 1-0 scoreline in recent weeks,
and Saha would gladly take a fifth such result in a row on Sunday.
"That's the main thing. We need to get points and that's what we're
doing now," he said. "We've got the confidence back and we want to
keep getting results because that is what will make us
champions."
