Ferguson believes that United's squad is strong enough to go on and win things sooner rather than later.

'The players have a lot to work for,' he said.

'I think they are on the verge of achieving something great at this club and you don't want to miss these things.

'When we got back into the dressing room, we managed to watch the last few minutes of Chelsea's game at Bolton.

'That kind of thing will always happen. The important thing is we are in a position to worry about them.'
