 On
the Burnley match
"Bad starts to
seasons are possibly part of our history," he said. "But we
don't like losing, and we don't like losing in a situation
where we feel we should have won.
"Maybe it was always going to be Burnley's night, having
been out of the top league for 33 years. Their fans were
fantastic. It was the biggest night of their lives, and
their players ran their socks off. It was an incredible
effort by them physically.
"They scored a fantastic goal, too. We maybe should have
dealt with it better, but nonetheless it was an incredible
strike.
"If that was one of our players, we'd be saying he's world
class and he'd get all the headlines. Robbie Blake has been
around a long time and I've seen him do that many times
before. Nobody is saying Robbie Blake is a world class
player, but it was a world class finish. You won't see many
better this season."
On Rio
Ferdinand's injury
"hopefully
three, but maybe four" weeks.
On Signing new
players
Didn't I say we
wouldn't make any more signings? That is it... I have already
made the point, and I am sure of it - this is a great group of
players. |
