Man Utd boss Ferguson: I never wanted to sell Cathcart to Blackpool

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson is happy seeing Craig Cathcart doing so well at Blackpool.

Speaking before last night's dramatic win, Ferguson admitted he did not want to lose the Ulsterman.

"Cathcart has done really well," said Ferguson.

"He was always a good player - excellent talent. The problem was he had a few injuries with us, and then we had Pique, Shawcross and Evans.

"I didn't really want to let him go to be honest, but he had to go for his career. The only thing I could have done was put him on loan again."
