Neville eyes final return
Gary Neville is targeting the FA Cup final against Chelsea later
this month for a return from an ankle injury that has kept him out
since March.
The United skipper went down under a challenge from Gary Speed
during the 4-1 win over Bolton at Old Trafford.
The 32-year-old right-back was initially given the prognosis of a
five weeks on the sidelines. But swelling in his ankle a fortnight
ago meant that his comeback was delayed.
Sir Alex denied the suggestion that the defender had been sent for
surgery, and says the FA Cup final at the new Wembley stadium on
Saturday 19 May is a realistic target.
"I think he has got a chance of making the FA Cup final," said Sir
Alex. "There is improvement [in his ankle]. He could possibly
feature at some point against West Ham next Sunday. But I think he
could make the final."
Yay!
