Boss praises Reds
Sir Alex cut a bemused figure after Sunday's 1-0 loss to Manchester
City and said it's now imperative United beat Spurs at Old Trafford
next weekend.
Like many Reds fans, the boss couldn't understand how United lost a
game in which their opponents had been so poor.
"I don't know how many corner kicks we had or how much possession
we had, but I do know we had clear-cut chances throughout the
match, even in the first 10 minutes," Ferguson said.
"We really should have sewn the game up even before they'd crossed
the halfway line. We've only got ourselves to blame let's make no
mistake about that."
At Eastlands, like at Old Trafford on the opening day of the season
and at Fratton Park four days ago, United failed to convert
chances. The Reds are now without a win from the first three league
games, a string of results that represents United's worst start in
the Premier League since 1991/92.
The manner in which the team are playing, however, continues to
impress Sir Alex.
"You look around that field and there's not one bad performer.
Everyone played his part. At this moment in time we'll use our
experience to make sure we don't get carried away.
