Peterborough boss Ferguson keen on Man Utd's Gibson

Peterborough boss Darren Ferguson admits he fancies signing some loan players from former club Manchester United.

He said: "The one we've spoken about signing was Darron Gibson, who scored the second goal. But he said that he wanted to do pre-season at United, and I couldn't wait any longer.

"They've got a lot of really good young players, but I can't see me doing any business there before the window shuts now.

"I obviously didn't nag my old man for players when I first started because I wanted to make my own name.

"With all due respect to League Two, I couldn't see any United players coming to us when we were down there.

"They tend to only go out to Championship sides - but maybe in League One I can get a few in."
