The 35 year old Manchester United midfielder believes that under the Special one they are making progress but too many draws damaged their season.

In their last 17 games they lost their match only against Chelsea by 1-0 goals in the FA Cup quarter –final at Stamford Bridge.

And in the premier league they lost their last match against the Blues side (Chelsea) side by 4-0 goals.

In their last couple of matches they drew some crucial matches and that hampered their run in the League.

This season they have drawn 12 of their matches and in that 9 was at their home soil.

In their last game also the Manchester United side created many chances but they failed to convert their chances into goals and the manager was furious with that and also he highlighted the attackers inability to take their chances.

The Manchester United midfielders said that they are performing well  but drawing their most the matches are killing their chances.

He said: "I can't compare us to any other team, to be honest. We concentrate on ourselves. We believe we will get better. We will improve. There are a lot of good signs.

"But you look at yourselves and say if we were really struggling football-wise and were miles away then in some ways, you can't accept it, but you can see why you are struggling.

"But we have been playing so well for so long. The draws are killing us. In some ways you are better off losing one and winning one than doing what we have been doing having drawn so many.
"But going on a run like we have done shows we have a bit of steel and have a bit of character about us.

"There are positives but at the moment it is not quite enough for us. We need that something to finish teams off. We have got to be ruthless and have to finish games off. We have to find a way. It is close, we are getting better but we still have to find that way.

"We have the quality in attack. It is disappointing if you are not creating but we are looking dangerous and I am sure it will come. As a team and a squad we are growing. We will develop that.

"We are not in a bad place but we need to find as a team a way to win games especially when you are playing so well as we have done. I don't think we are far away."
