The veteran tactician claimed that he wanted to his team kick things off with a high tempo just like they did last time out.
With the Premier League season only a few weeks away, teams are putting final touches to their pre-season campaigns as they look to challenge for honours. Reigning champions Manchester City will be the ones to beat, but their arch-rivals United are not far
behind, especially with their summer spending.
The Red Devils have already signed http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Shinji-Kagawa-c33364 and Nick Powell, as they look to shore up their midfield options ahead of the new term. The centre of the park was one of the main reasons why the 19-time winners weren’t able to get their hands on the trophy
in May, but Ferguson has sought to remedy that.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robin-van-Persie-c31380 are also thought to be on the Scot’s radar but it remains to be seen whether they can be acquired before the transfer window closes in September.
However, Fergie has reiterated that his side need to start proceedings in a positive manner and play at a high pace just like they did last season.
"The Monday night start doesn’t bother me. That’s not a big factor. The fact it’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Everton-c13019 away holds much more weight. It’s a tough fixture and we’ve not found it easy there in recent years, despite some good results. We can’t complain, though. We had a
tough start last season, too.”
"We played Tottenham, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 very early and ended up getting off to a flyer. We’ll be aiming to do the same this year,” the former Aberdeen boss was quoted as saying.
United face a tough task in getting the trophy back to Old Trafford from the Etihad, but they can bank on the talents and experience of players such as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Rooney-c36736 to do so.
Alongside skipper http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nemanja-Vidic-c27550 and the new acquisitions they will be at the crux of the Reds line-up and will surely look to add to their already burgeoning trophy cabinet by wrestling back the title from their cross-town rivals.
