Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has played
down the prospect of further new faces arriving at Old Trafford
this summer and insists he is happy with the players at his
disposal going into the new season.
Ferguson has made only two additions to his squad with defender
Chris Smalling arriving from Fulham and striker Javier Hernandez
joining from Chivas Guadalajara.
United, as usual at this time of year, continue to be linked
with a number of players but Ferguson admitted he happy with his
lot while refusing to be drawn into a debate about Manchester
City's spending power.
"I cannot speak about other clubs. We are comfortable with the
squad we have got," Ferguson said.
"We bought players at the right time of the season and we are
happy with what we have."
Ferguson has been impressed with the performance of his players
on their current North American tour, which has seen the squad
training in high heat and humidity.
He said: "We are doing double sessions at 9.50am and 5.30pm and
that helps us get a little rest after lunchtime.
"The conditions haven't stopped us - they have been really good.
The players have been great. They have shown some good application,
good concentration and put in some really good work.
"It is now we are beginning to see the benefits of our training.
The tempo is at the level we expect of our players."
