Having dealt with the Wayne Rooney situation in a style that shocked, Sir Alex has since turned his full attention to more pressing, on-field problems.
Mistakes, such as the one made by Edwin Van der Sar at the weekend, and a seeming general loss of confidence and concentration are costing United dear this season, certainly in the Premier League.Saturday was the third time United have given away a two-goal advantage, and the Red Devils are already five points behind leaders Chelsea.United currently top their Champions League group after a valuable win in Valencia, coming after they’d been held at home by Rangers. Ferguson is almost at a loss to explain what is going wrong, and reckons Van Der Sar’s error at the weekend is symptomatic of their current fortunes.
As Manchester United prepare to host Bursaspor in the UEFA Champions League, it is difficult to imagine that a single player will ever again eclipse a match to such an extent without actually setting foot on the field.
TEAM NEWS
Manchester United will be without strike duo Wayne Rooney and Michael Owen for Wednesday's game against Bursaspor at Old Trafford. Rooney, 24, was stretchered off during the end of Tuesday's training session at Carrington with an ankle injury.
