Sunderland boss Steve Bruce believes that he will never win at Old Trafford after his side lost 1-0 to Manchester United.

Sunderland manager Steve Bruce has said that he is destined not to win at Old Trafford after his side lost 1-0 to Manchester United.

Wes Brown's own goal against his former club seperated the sides on the day when Sir Alex Ferguson celebrated 25 years in charge of United.

"I'm never destined to get everything here [at Old Trafford]," Bruce told BBC Sport. "I think I've had all my good times.

"For all United's great play to lose to an own goal from a set piece is disappointing. Wes Brown couldn't do much about it.

"I think we have the nucleus of a very good squad and we've seen signs here again. We'll keep plodding away and hopefully things will change."

The defeat has left the Black Cats 14th in the Premier League table.
