Hargreaves: We'll get Better

  • 13 August 2008

OWEN Hargreaves has sent out an eve-of-season warning to Manchester United's domestic and European rivals: We can get even better.

Hargreaves is not saying United will win more, but the England international has made it clear the Red Devils will not relinquish their Champions League and Premier League crowns without a fight.

'I definitely believe we can get better,' he said. 'Cristiano Ronaldo is injured and Anderson will be away at the Olympics, so we will miss them early on, but apart from that the squad looks good.

'The group has been together for a year now, so we should improve and I am looking forward to seeing us do just that.

'Gary Neville is back, which is important and when you look at what Wayne Rooney has achieved, at just 22, I think he could be one of the most influential players in the Premier League this season.'
