Ferguson eager for real show to start after Turkish defeat

Fenerbahce 3 Man Utd 0

After watching his second string slump to a 3-0 defeat against Fenerbahce in Istanbul, Ferguson learned his team will have a 60% chance of landing Italian opposition in the first knock-out phase next February, with Juventus, Inter and AC Milan all lying in wait.

Monaco and Bayer Leverkusen, both European conquerors of the Red Devils in recent years, are the other potential opponents when the draw for the last 16 is made in Nyon on December 17.
