Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson insists that his much-changed side performed well despite slipping to their first European defeat of the season against Galatasaray.

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has insisted that there are positives to take from his side's performance against Galatasaray despite slipping to defeat in Turkey.

A header from Burak Yilmaz condemned United to their first European defeat of the season at the hands of the Turkish champions.

Ferguson chose to rest a number of first-choice players with qualification assured and believes that a new-look side can be proud of their overall display.

He told Sky Sports News: "The possession was good and the attacking play was good. We had one or two good opportunities in both halves.

"They had few strikes from outside the box and our goalkeeper did well. Otherwise we coped well."

United are assured of top spot in Group H despite the loss after winning their first four matches in the competition.
