Ferguson may have to stand pat
Sir Alex Ferguson has warned fretting Manchester United fans that they should not expect an influx of signings in January.
Ferguson's side has been attracting criticism in recent weeks, especially over their midfield performances, and that criticism reached a crescendo in midweek when defeat in Basel knocked them out of the Champions League.
United lost skipper Nemanja Vidic for the season in Switzerland as well but Ferguson is not convinced the quality of player he would like to add will be available next month.
"It is very difficult to buy players in January," he said. "You don't just want to buy any player simply because it gives you another one. You want to buy someone who can make a difference.
"We have only had maybe four or five signings in my time here in January. It is not a consistent route for us simply because of all the disadvantages.
"I am not quite sure if you went for a player if he could play in the Europa League. There is criteria there in the sense of playing in the Champions League and whether they could play in the Europa League.
"There are a lot of issues there but there is nothing in my mind at the moment."
