'Fergie' thinks that Manchester United can hold onto their Champion's League trophy.Sir Alex Ferguson has attested that his Mancheter United side have what it takes to be the first team to retain the Champions League title.
"You say to yourself it would be great if we could be the first do that [retain the Champions League trophy]," said the United boss, as quoted in the Daily Express.
"We are good at winning things for the first time and maybe that is a good omen for us."
If Manchester United are able to win the Champions League for the second year running, it would be the first time that particular feat will have been achieved by a club since the competition's format changed from the European Cup.
Milan, Ajax and Juventus all made it to the finals the year after winning, but none of the teams were able to raise the trophy after the last game. Ferguson, however, feels that his team are capable of being the exception.
"Some might say I am tempting fate but at Old Trafford we have always set our sights high," continued Ferguson.
"No one is saying it will be easy, and we will certainly need to enjoy that little rub of luck and freedom from injury that can make you or break you."
