Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson is confident Wayne Rooney, Nemanja Vidic and Patrice Evra will all feature in Saturday's crunch Premier League clash at home to West Ham on Saturday.

Rooney and Vidic both missed last night's 1-0 Champions League semi-final victory over Barcelona after suffering injuries in last Saturday's 2-1 defeat at Chelsea. England striker Rooney has a sore hip while Serbian defender Vidic was concussed following a collision with Didier Drogba at Stamford Bridge. Left-back Evra played against Barcelona but was stretchered off late in the game after receiving a blow to the head.

"Patrice got a real bang on the head but I’m sure he’ll be all right for Saturday," Ferguson told the club's official website. "Vidic may be okay too, but that’s in the doctor's hands.

"After getting the knock against Chelsea on Saturday, Wayne was in real pain on Monday. I made the decision not to risk him (against Barcelona) because if I had to then substitute him early in the match it could really have affected us. So I went with a front two of Cristiano Ronaldo and Carlos Tevez. Wayne has got a big chance (of being fit to face West Ham). He'll be all right for Saturday."

United, in sight of a Premier League and European double, are aiming to keep up the pressure on Chelsea on Saturday as their rivals for the title do not face Newcastle until Monday. Meanwhile, Ronaldo has hailed the Old Trafford crowd for their vocal support against Barcelona as United reached their first Champions League final since 1999. "The fans were absolutely fantastic," Ronaldo said. "They did a great job and sang for the whole game. It gave the players motivation and helped us get a massive result."

Ronaldo said United would not be distracted by thoughts of the Champions League final, insisting the whole squad were fully focussed on retaining their Premier League title first. "The feeling is great," he said. "It will be my first Champions League final and I feel very good. It's great for me and my colleagues. The final is in three weeks and we have time to work and keep our concentration. But the most important thing now is the league."

its a must win for us!

tripsky SG

they hav won only 2 of their last ten games.. including 4-0 thrashing by chelsea and pool.. thay hav nothing to play for and i see no reason y we can't win although we lost our past three games with them. i believe our last defeat to them was mostly due to tactical error hopefully we dont make the same mistakes. read from somewhere that curbs may be using some youngsters for the game. we can do it!!

iSkiMask SG

Alan Curbishley has confirmed what all Chelsea fans were dreading, West Ham will take a scratch squad to Manchester United in a week’s time.

The Hammers have been struck down by injuries all season, with Freddie Ljungberg the latest in a long line of casualties after Steven Taylor inadvertently cracked his rib.

Chelsea need United to drop a point in one of their final two league games if they are to win the title, but Curbishley revealed he will be giving one or two youngsters a chance at Old Trafford.

Matthew Upson, Anton Ferdinand, Jonathan Spector, Danny Gabbidon, James Collins and Calum Davenport are all out, meaning the likes of James Tomkins will be thrown in at the deep end.

"Perhaps some players have only seen Old Trafford on the TV might get a chance. It will be another learning curve for one or two of them and I have been happy with young Tomkins.

"Our problems have actually made us stronger because our squad player have been getting games and are more experienced.

"Obviously we won't be going with the pressure we had on us last year but we want to finish the season as strongly as we can. We will go there and give it our best shot."
