Sir Alex Ferguson, manager of Manchester United, hinted strongly at a Philadelphia news conference that he will be bringing more players to bolster his squad during its matches of the 2004 ChampionsWorld Tour.
“I feel for the fans because we’ve brought so many young lads. I know it’s hard for fans to understand the difficulties we face with some fitness issues, and, believe me I’d dearly love to have everybody here,” said the legendary manager.
“We’re trying to get back to as strong a team as we can over the next two matches because we don’t want to disappoint the fans or ChampionsWorld, who have worked so hard to organize the matches. I’ll be working hard over the next two days to get players here.”
Ferguson also named Tim Howard as his starting goalkeeper for the matches against Celtic (Philadelphia, July 28) and AC Milan (Giants Stadium, July 31). |
