On Vidic
"He hasn't started
training yet"
On Berbatov's
importance to the club.
"Of course, he's a
member of our squad. And it's an exhausting season."
ON Wayne Rooney
"He's not playing tomorrow,"
"It can be difficult to assess a hamstring injury.
Obviously we hope we have him back quickly. He did a
bit of jogging this morning but that's all. It's
difficult to say.
ON Hernandez
"is straightforward, it's a dead leg. He should
be ready for next Saturday." |
