Scholes eyes goal glut
Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes says his team-mates must
quickly get back on the goal trail.
The Red Devils host Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday in an important
match for both clubs. United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has admitted
it is imperative that his side claim three points after failing to
win any of their opening three Barclays Premier League
matches.
"I would think the goals are just around the corner, but we can't
take it for granted," said Scholes, whose side has scored just once
this season. "There are lots of players in the team who can score
goals and create them. Hopefully it will all click into place soon.
But we'd obviously like to have won at least one of our opening
three games."
find the net
United are without the injured Wayne Rooney for the next few weeks,
while Cristiano Ronaldo is banned for the next two matches after
being sent-off against Portsmouth last week. Without the key pair,
United failed to find the net in the 1-0 defeat to Manchester City
on Sunday. However, Scholes is remaining upbeat.
He added: "It gives those that maybe haven't had the chance to
shine an opportunity. We've got a good enough squad."
