Manchester United Boss Sir Alex Ferguson claimed that his side definitely deserved a point when they took on Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane yesterday.

Even though United are now two points behind league toppers Arsenal, the United manager is proud at the determination and passion shown by his boys till the final whistle.

"It could be massive," he told MUTV. "We don't stop trying. When we're 1-0 down we'll throw everything at a game, we've always done that. All things being equal, a point's a good point for us, bearing in mind we were 1-0 down at half-time.

"If we'd have got the goal earlier, we'd have won the match. I think in the last 25 minutes we've absolutely battered them. We've deserved a point, but just.

"In the first half I think Tottenham were the better side. They worked their socks off. Under Juande Ramos they're on the upswing, there's no question about that. It was a real difficult game for us. Maybe we've gained a point."
