Ferguson Bemoans Lack of Goals
Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has expressed his concern over the number of goals that his team have managed to score in recent games.

Scotsman Ferguson is also unhappy about two consecutive 0-0 draws, but is content with the point The Red Devils earned in Prague.

The comments come after United's 0-0 Champions League draw with Sparta Prague on Tuesday and last weekend's 0-0 Premiership draw with Birmingham City.

Not converting chances into goals seemed to be the least of things United fans/Sir Alex Ferguson would be worried about during any point this season, with various mouthwatering striking partnerships that can include Ruud van Nistelrooy, Alan Smith, Wayne Rooney or Louis Saha.

"It is always a concern when you don't score, particularly with a team that has such a great strike rate," said Ferguson.

"Some of our approach play was good tonight but we let ourselves down with the final ball."

"It's fair to say Sparta had the better chances, even though we were generally in control of the game."

"But we do have players who can score and hopefully the situation will turn."
