 On
Rooney
"Wayne has done some work in
the last couple of days and we're going to assess how he
does today [in training] to see how he is for Saturday's
game. "The big problem is that all the players want to
play. But we have to be 100 per cent sure that Wayne is
ready."
On Ferdinand & Giggs
"The same applies for Ryan and
Rio (as above), although they are both behind Wayne in terms
of the work they have done.
"Picking up injuries in last Sunday's game is a problem in
terms of recovery time, but at least they have done some
jogging. I have to consider them if they manage to do
something today (Friday). But it's up in the air at the
moment."
On John O'Shea
"I think with John it was just
tiredness after his first start in quite a while. Other than
that everyone is fit."
On the upcoming fixtures
"It's a pivotal week of the
season for four teams - ourselves, Manchester City, Chelsea
and Spurs," "Being selfish, we obviously hope that we
and Spurs both win."
 Michael
Carrick
We are not giving up," We still
have that lifeline and whilst we still have half a chance,
we will continue to fight.
"Tomorrow could throw up something different again, "You
just have to hope that we can get the right result and
things will swing back in our favour."
