Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson rates winning the Premiership this season ahead of the Champions League.

"I would be happy if we only won the Premier League from this point," he said. "It is a major trophy.

"I would love to see us winning the Champions League again. That is my big desire.

"But at this moment the Premier League has to be the best opportunity.

"If we keep our heads straight and focused we have a big chance."

Not that Ferguson is willing to meekly surrender United's European crown to Inter Milan coach Jose Mourinho next week.

"We have done the hard bit in a way by going there and proving our worth," he said.

"Now all we need to do is win our home game and we are through to the quarter final."
