Fergie: No January signings

Sir Alex Ferguson doesn't expect to add any new faces to his Manchester United squad in January, but believes neighbours Manchester City will be busy in the transfer window.
Ferguson concluded his transfer business with the £30million signing of Dimitar Berbatov from Tottenham Hotspur in the last transfer window at the beginning of the current campaign.
But the veteran Scot believes City will be active in the new year following the investment his counterpart Mark Hughes has received after the club was taken over by the Abu Dhabi United Group earlier in the season.
The Citizens set a new British transfer record with their £32million capture of Robinho back in August and continue to be linked with some of the world's leading players.
"There definitely won't be anyone coming here but I'm pretty sure City will do some business," he told the club's official magazine Inside United.
"You don't talk about having all this money and then not use it.
"They'll have plenty of ideas - the fact that they tried to buy four or five players in an hour on deadline day gives you an indication of what they want to do.
"But at the end of the day you can't buy them all."
