Anderson er omsider tilbake fra skade og trener med førstelaget igjen.

“Everyone is fit from Monday night’s game. Evra got a knock when he went down by the advertising boards, but I’m sure he’ll be OK. The good news is that Anderson started football training yesterday. We’re pleased with that.”

Samtidig forteller han at Rio må belage seg på flere uker på sidelinjen.

“I still think Rio won’t be back until the end of September. At the time Steve McNally, the club doctor, said September. We’re quite near the mark.”

“It was a knee ligament injury. Not the cruciate, it was medial ligaments. It was a freak training ground accident at the World Cup. It was nothing to do with his back, which was a problem for him last season. But I think he should be back late September.”

Etter mye bråk den siste tiden innrømmer SAF at Ando var nær ved å forsvinne fra Man Utd, og tror at skaden kan ha fått unggutten til å sette ting i perspektiv.

“Maybe it is a good thing he has been injured for a spell because he can look at the situation,”

“In some ways, I don’t want to change his mentality because it is wonderful to see someone who wants to play every minute of every day.

“If you have someone with that enthusiasm, you have to be careful you don’t check it to the point when you lose it.

“I didn’t talk to him about leaving. I just let him get it out of his system.

“Maybe the injury has quelled the storm in his body because he came back here with the same enthusiasm and has been telling me he is ready to play.

“Everyone has seen the quality in his game and he will get his opportunity.”
