橫樑阻魯尼破門‧貝巴難破778天歐冠球荒
（英國‧曼徹斯特8日訊）曼聯主帥弗格森讓貝巴托夫和魯尼一起打滿全場比賽，但這兩名前鋒還是沒能打破本賽季歐冠小組賽的進球荒，而貝巴托夫的歐冠進球荒則誇張地已延續了兩年多。
上一次貝巴托夫的歐冠進球已是2008年10月21日對謝爾迪時梅開二度，他此後整整778天就再也沒有嘗到過歐冠進球的滋味，而現在小組賽結束，他的歐冠球荒至少要等到明年春暖花開才有望打破。
而魯尼的情況稍好，他雖然沒進球，但他的組織工作做得完美無缺，如果隊友運氣夠好，他的助攻幾乎可以上演帽子戲法。
魯尼本場比賽共為隊友送出6次有威脅的助攻，只要隊友把握得當，每一次都有可能輕鬆化為進球，加上他本人的一記橫樑，小胖在這場比賽裡已好得不能再好，但還是與進球無緣。
由於現在曼聯中場組織乏力，魯尼經常主動性回撤幫助球隊組織進攻，他的位置也越來越遠離球門，一個中鋒如果經常跑位扯動敵人防線，或者拉到邊路接應傳中，那麼離進球越來越遠也是有情可原。

Sir Alex Ferguson: Manchester United Can Cope With Anyone We Get In The Next Round Of The Champions League
United boss in confident move despite draw with Valencia

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson believes his squad can deal with "anything we get" after progressing to the Champions League knockout stages.
Tuesday night's draw with Valencia at Old Trafford rounded off proceedings as Ferguson's men reached the knockout stages for the 14th time in the last 15th seasons.
The draw saw United top their qualifying group to prevent meeting teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid in the next round but potential ties against reigning European champions Inter and Serie A league leaders AC Milan are still available.
"You have to take who you get," Sir Alex told the club's official website, when asked about potential draws.
"I think we’ve got the squad, we can cope with anything we get."
The Reds conceded their first goal of the Champions League against Valencia due to a mistake from Michael Carrick but Ferguson chose to concentrate on topping the group.
"Michael knows better," said Sir Alex.
"It’s just one of these unfortunate things. I thought he had a terrific game apart from that. But it’s always nice to get records.
"Until last week we went 29 games without losing, for instance, and eventually you’re going to lose.
"Tonight we were going for six clean sheets and we didn’t get it, but the important thing is winning the group is more important than a goal record.
"I think we should’ve won the game. We had a lot of chances. Berba could have scored another four or five tonight, but the goalkeeper made some great saves.
"The most important thing was coming first after a game which I thought was quite entertaining. It was a good quality match and I’m quite pleased."
Had United kept a clean sheet last night they would have been the first side in European history to make it through the group stages without conceding a goal.

Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas will be given every chance to get himself right for Monday’s vital Premier League clash with Manchester United.
The league-leading Gunners take on the second-placed Red Devils at Old Trafford in what could be a season-defining clash and may have their inspirational skipper with them.
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger says a decision on the Spaniard, who has missed the past two league matches with a hamstring strain, will not be made until match day.
“We could have Cesc Fabregas (back), but there is a big uncertainty if he can be in the squad or not. That will be decided very late,” said Wenger.
In other Gunners injury news, left-back Kieran Gibbs is set for three weeks with an ankle injury sustained in Wednesday’s Champions League win over Partizan Belgrade but will be replaced by Gael Clichy who should return from illness whilst Johan Djourou is responding well to treatment on his thigh problem.

Manchester United winger Nani is excited about their looming clash with Arsenal.
Nani scored in last season's 3-1 win at the Emirates Stadium and admits matches against Arsenal will always capture his imagination.
He told MUTV: “It’s always a fantastic game. Everyone wants to play the big games and I think it will be a fantastic atmosphere. Arsenal are doing well but we are doing well, too. We just have to concentrate on our own performance and try to win.”
Vidic enjoying Man Utd captaincy role
Nemanja Vidic is enjoying his role as Manchester United captain this season.
Vidic is pleased with the form he has shown this season since being handed the armband by managerSir Alex Ferguson.
He said: "Obviously there's a bit more responsibility and I'm coming to the age when I have more responsibility, me and a few others in the team.
"I am quite happy with that and I'm enjoying it.
"It's not a question you should ask me, about my performances and how I play this season. I'm at an age now where I have to take more responsibility as a player.
"When I came here I was 24 and I was still young and a lot of older players took responsibility on the pitch.
"But now I have to do that, be supportive to the younger players and be an example. It's something that comes naturally as you get older.
"The more responsibility you have and the more pressure you have, I think the better your focus and concentration are. So it helps."

Man Utd boss Ferguson wants 25 goals from Berbatov

READ MORE NEWS ON: Manchester United, Sir Alex Ferguson
Manchester United bossSir Alex Ferguson was 25 goals from Dimitar Berbatov this season.
Berbatov became the fourth striker in Premier League history to score five in one match, when he led the 7-1 demolition of Blackburn last weekend.
Fergie said: “We need two players to get us 25 or more. Last season, Rooney got us 34 and Berbatov got us only 12.
“But 25 is absolutely achievable for Berbatov and if Rooney gets on track, then we could have a decent scoring record. Our goal difference was disappointing last season.
“We’ve got 17 different scorers so far this season and as a team they’ve done well. Berbatov has got his goals, Nani has got us four or five and so has Ji-Sung Park. We’re just waiting for Rooney to spark.”
Man Utd boss Ferguson denies losing confidence in Evans
Fergie insisted there was no problem with Jonny Evans, who was subbed after a poor performance in the 4-0 Carling Cup defeat at West Ham.
“He had a bad game but he’s not the only person to have had a bad game,” said Ferguson. “For a centre-back he’s still young. He had a great season last time and there’s no problem.”
