Sir Alex pleased with Team's Progress

United manger Sir Alex Ferguson has said that he is pleased with the team’s performance over the mid season of 2009-10. He added that injuries to his defense are the main reason for this scenario.

Sir Alex will complete his 68 years on 31^st December and a thrashing win over Wigan can be a great gift for him. If it happens then Man Utd will be on 2^nd position at the end of this year just two points behind Chelsea.

United manger said that it is impossible to play in this league without proper centre backs, same thing Jose Mourinho had told in 2006-07 when Terry, Carvalho and Cech were missing games due to injuries. He was compelled to play Essian as centre back.
