Manchester United are preparing for a double dose
of good news on the injury front. Midfield pair Michael Carrick and
Owen Hargreaves could both be back in action ahead of next
Saturday's Old Trafford clash with West Brom after recent
injuries.
Carrick has been struggling with an ankle problem for the
majority of the season, missing six games since his last appearance
against Liverpool at Anfield in September.
Meanwhile, Hargreaves has been plagued by a tendinitis injury
since he arrived at Old Trafford from Bayern Munich 16 months ago.
Sir Alex Ferguson will be pleased to have the pair back in action -
especially as Paul Scholes' knee injury will keep him out until
December.
"We are expecting Michael to be available next week," Ferguson
told the Manchester Evening News. He is almost back to full
training now.
"Owen is much better and we will pencil him in for the West Brom
game without question."
