We are lucky? Birmingham City are happy to be only 12 points behind Manchester... - The Independent

Sir Alex Ferguson responded to Roberto Mancinias jibe that Manchester United have now been aluckya by claiming that City are privileged to be only 12 items behind. Mancini said that Unitedas alucka was best exhibited by how many activities they've acquired in the last few minutes aincluding against us. But, Ferguson, who has seen his side take 27 points from losing this season to positions, was withering in his analysis of the Manchester City manager. aHe is happy they're only 12 points behind. It's perhaps not lucky we report late goals; we have just been doing it for 25 years. It is an awful habit,a he said. In a series of interviews with academics from Harvard University this past year, the United boss suggested a few of the clubas teaching practices are made with late objectives at heart. Ferguson wouldn't elaborate yesterday but added: aThe late goals are no accident. We did it to win the treble in 1999 a' every step of just how we got late objectives. Since this is really a team that wants to gain all the time.a It is not an accident this time Following a signing of a new one-year agreement, this afternoonas expertise with Norwich City can be Ryan Giggsa 1,000th senior game, accurate documentation Ferguson expects never to be equalled. Should United beat the Canaries at Old Trafford a' which they have only once did not do since 1989 a' Mancini may find himself 15 factors adrift by the full time City kick off at Aston Villa on Monday evening. That's the biggest difference between Unitedas make an effort to win a treble now and the season they achieved the task. Then, Ferguson suggested that what held his part on course was that, in the Premier League, Arsenal sent them to the very end. During this period of the 1998-99 season Manchester United were seven points away from ArsAne Wengeras area. They won the league by one. aThe similarities to 1999 are which our FA Cup work was a difficult one and our European ties were really hard,a said Ferguson. Shock were in an organization with Barcelona and Bayern Munich and got a against Inter Milan and a semi-final against Juventus. This year we got Real Madrid upright. In the FA Cup, we've had Premier League teams constantly a anything we experienced in 1999 also.a The greatest game on Unitedas horizon, the next leg of their Champions League knowledge with Real Madrid, is now squarely on the horizon. Though Jose Mourinhoas part may have sustained following suits against Barcelona prior to going to Old Trafford on Tuesday, nothing Ferguson found at the Nou Camp this week left him complacent. aI was shocked,a he explained of Realas 3-1 win in the Copa Del Rey. aI believed Real Madrid were magnificent, I must say I did. They won effectively with Ronaldo, Di Maria and Ozil on the counter-attack.That is what we will be against on Tuesday and that's what our formulations are centring on a' making certain their counter-attacking doesnat kill us.a
