Sir Alex Feels For Leeds

Speaking on manutd.soccer24-7.com  he said: "Obviously the rivalry between ourselves and Leeds has been well documented, but it's been sad to see what's happened to them in the last couple of years. I think there are a few other clubs with similiar financial problems which have not necessarily been as exposed as the Leeds situation. I read a newspaper report this week saying that Arsenal could be in administration next year. You'd hate to think that anything like that could happen to clubs of that tradition.

"Leeds had a battling performance against Wolves a couple of weeks ago and they were a bit unlucky against Aston Villa after losing a soft penalty. They've got the fans behind them who are very passionate about their team and that will give them a chance, but they really need to start winning games. I've always said that draws are no use at the bottom of the league, you need to win games. You only have to look at Manchester City this season. They've drawn a lot of games and find themselves down at the bottom. But it's not easy to win games when you're down there particularly at this time of the season. I'm sure Leeds will put on a passionate performance at Old Trafford."
