Sir Alex Ferguson a declarat ca Manchester United este capabila sa castige trofeul Uefa Champions League in acest sezon spunand ca va fi un efort al intregii echipe.
  Ferguson nu a folosit aceeasi echipa de start in 78 de meciuri consecutive, inca odata demonstrand preferinta sa de a roti jucatorii pe parcursul unui sezon.
  Inainte de confruntarea de maine din Champions League impotriva campionilor germani de la Wolfsburg sunt asteptate schimbari in echipa care i-a invins pe Stoke City in campionat.

"I think the material is there for us to win the European Cup again," a declarat Ferguson pentru Daily Mirror.
"We have a good bunch of players. And if we win it, it won`t be the team that wins it, it`ll be the squad. But it`s not easy to win it, as we found out in last season`s final against Barcelona."
"One mistake in a big game like that and you`re crucified, remember that. One mistake - dead."
But if we keep our heads and play the right way in the group stage of the competition, I think we should qualify.
When we get to the later stages, then we can start to think about getting to the final in Madrid."


  Una dintre posibilele victime ale politicii de roatatie a lui Ferguson este Paul Scholes care la 34 de ani rareori mai joaca doua meciuri consecutive.
"I suppose I`m in the manager`s office a lot more these days, with him telling me I`m not playing," a declarat Scholes.
"You still want to impress, but the coaches are always asking how you feel and whether you want to take a day off here or there."

  Scholes a dezvaluit ca s-a antrenat foarte mult la suturi, golurile fiind un capitol la care Paul nu a excelat in ultima vreme. 
"When I was younger I used to get forward a lot more than I do now.
I think the manager expects me to stay in the middle of the park nowadays and pass to the players who can go forward and score goals.
I`d still like to get forward every now and then and chip in, but you have to play however the manager wants you to play.
I like to stay and do a bit of shooting practice at the end of training. My goals have dried up a bit in recent years, so I`d like to get back to scoring a few.
I just want to win more trophies and medals. We`re going to be going for all four trophies again this season, so let`s see what happens."
