Sir Alex won’t be shopping in the January sales

Sir Alex Ferguson has stated today that it is unlikely that he will bring in reinforcements in January.

There have been calls from some to bring in fresh faces specifically in midfield whilst former United goalkeeper Mark Bosnich stated United would put themselves in better stead if they brought in a defender in January (?).

But in his press conference this morning, Sir Alex poured water on the idea stating:

“It’s not easy to buy players who are good enough for Manchester United, especially in January.

“We’ll be okay, we have a strong squad”

This comes after Sir Alex revealed Anderson has sustained his annual long term injury, this time a knee injury that will keep him out until February.

With our midfield not in the best shape already, the long term loss of Anderson is yet another blow.
