O'Leary Dismisses Utd Duo Rumours

Last updated : 20 July 2004 By Paul Doherty
Media reports had been suggesting that the Villa boss was interested in bringing the unsettled Red Devils pair to Villa Park but he has quashed these rumours.

"If I wanted those good players, I would be on to Sir Alex Ferguson asking about them but as managers we live with that, people writing things and we then have to pick up the pieces," he told Sky Sports News.

"But it is a load of rubbish."

"There's 15 players left," he added. "So it doesn't take much to know that we are very low on numbers and need players.

"We would like to bring in another four players at least."
