Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson believes they're on the verge of a new successful dynasty.

United's boss declared: "The last time we had a youthful squad like this, back in 1999, we won the Treble. Now it's time for a new Reds dynasty to step forward, to achieve even more.

"My mission, our mission, is to make United the undisputed No 1 club in England, Europe and the world. We want to be challenging, and winning, on all fronts.

"That's the United way. Never standing still, always striving for higher and higher standards."

Ferguson is thrilled by the contribution of new boys Carlos Tevez, Nani and Anderson, who starred in Tuesday's 4-2 Champions League win over Dynamo Kiev.

Of Tevez, he added: "He's only 23 and already mentioned in the same breath as one of the all-time greats, Maradona."
