Fergie expects improvement

18 Sep 2008 - 07:28:06

Sir Alex Ferguson is confident that Manchester United will improve after starting their defence of the Champions League with a goalless draw against Villarreal.

United have struggled to hit the ground running in the new campaign after winning just once and scoring four times in their five opening games.

Ferguson will lead his side into action against Premier League title rivals Chelsea on Sunday but is not concerned by their slow start to the season.

"We will improve from now," he said. "We are a bit short but the games will bring us on.

"It was the same last season. It wasn't until we got a victory over Sunderland that we really got on the road.

"We have a little bit to go yet. But once the sharpness of play comes I am sure the goals will come as well."

Meanwhile, Ferguson admitted he was pleased with the overall performance against Villarreal despite the closest his side coming to scoring being Jonny Evans striking the post with a second-half header.

"We made a lot of good chances, we played really good football, we played with speed. I have no complaints," he added.

"On another day we could have scored four or five.

""They are a very experienced side, very competitive team. They defend determinedly."
