Scholes wants repeat display

Paul Scholes believes Manchester United will progress from their UEFA Champions League tie with Inter Milan, providing they can repeat their performance in Italy a fortnight ago.[LNB] United were dominant for large spells in the San Siro but had to settle for a goalless draw due to wastefulness in front of goal.[LNB]A lack of an away goal for Sir Alex Ferguson's side means the tie is delicately poised, with many suggesting United could rue failing to break down the Italians.[LNB]But Scholes draws confidence from their display away from Old Trafford and is confident a similar performance would see them through to the quarter-finals. [LNB]Dangerous"We didn't allow Inter to play and the only thing that was missing was the goal," said Scholes.[LNB]"We created enough chances to win two or three games and I accept 0-0 can be a dangerous scoreline.[LNB]"But if the first game is anything to go by, we should have a great chance.[LNB]"It is a tricky situation. If they do get a goal we will have to get two.[LNB]"But we are more than capable of doing that with the players we have."[LNB]It promises to be an intriguing battle, not least because Jose Mourinho has such an outstanding head-to-head record against Ferguson.[LNB]No bearingOn the 13 occasions the two men have met, Ferguson has emerged victorious just once, not that Scholes feels it will have any effect whatsoever.[LNB]"I don't think Jose Mourinho being their manager has any bearing on the actual game," added Scholes.[LNB]"It didn't during the first one.[LNB]"He is just the manager of their team. There is not much he can do on the night.[LNB]"If we get anywhere near the level we did in Milan, hopefully we will be okay."[LNB]
