preview: Manchester united v Fulham

premiership Matchday 30

Old Trafford, Manchester, England, 20.00pm GMT, Monday 26th March 2012.

PRESS CONFERENCE

"Tom Cleverley, Paul Pogba and Fabio all had a game. We took Paul off purely because he will be involved on Monday.

"It puts us in a position where we have quite a strong squad now. We are only waiting on Nani and Michael Owen. We expect both of them to restart training next week."

"Every game is must-win now," said Ferguson.

"That is no issue for me. I have been used to that for years. Hopefully we can keep the momentum going."
