Sir Alex Ferguson's number two Carlos Queiroz wants the current crop of Manchester United stars to emulate the treble-winning side of 1999.

The Red Devils are currently fighting on three fronts and the Portuguese assistant has warned that winning the Premiership alone might not be enough.

Queiroz has called for concentration and calm as United look to keep ahead of Chelsea in the race for the league title, while simultaneously looking to secure silverware in the Champions League and FA Cup.

"It's not enough for us to compete only for the league. We also have ambitions and a great desire to win the other competitions as well," he told Manchester United Radio.

"The reality at the moment dictates that the championship will probably be a two-horse race.

"But that isn't the case when it comes to the FA Cup and Champions League - it's wrong to think those competitions are also between us and Chelsea.

"We haven't won anything yet though. We're in a good position as a result of our hard work, commitment and concentration and we must keep that going until the end of the season."
