PRESS CONFERENCE |
"I am
going to need to assess our games because we're
maybe finding it difficult to marry the two
competitions together," the Reds boss said.
"I think we can win the game okay but to marry these
two together successfully I think you need the full
squad."

Smalling
"We'll have to look at that issue and see what
the problem is," he added. "I imagine he'll be
doubtful for Sunday but I think everyone else is
okay."
"I
think Tom will be involved," Sir Alex told MUTV's
Countdown to Kick-off. "Obviously the problem when
you have players out for such a long time is when
you can get them back into the fray.
"For instance, Ando played for half an hour and it
was a good half-hour for him as he'd not played for
two months." |
