Fergie rues missed chancesManchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson thinks his team would have beaten Reading in their opening game of the season if Wayne Rooney had avoided injury in the first half of the clash.
Speaking after the 0-0 opening day draw with The Royals Ferguson said: "It just wasn't our day,"
"We broke them down alright, had some good chances and some good movement.
"In the second half, chances started to come. We had some good chances and we just didn't take them.
"Credit to them, they battled, they wanted a result and they got one.
"I can understand anyone coming here and doing that.
"The loss of Wayne Rooney was obvious - I think if he'd been on the pitch we'd have won the match."
