Reds primed and ready
Sir Alex Ferguson can't wait for Saturday's top-of-the-table clash between Arsenal
and United at the Emirates Stadium.
"We couldn't be going into the game in any better shape or form," he told
journalists at his pre-match press conference. "But I'm sure Arsene Wenger will
say the same thing."
Indeed, both sides are flying at the moment, with United riding high on the back
of four consecutive four-goal hauls.
The Reds' boss also revealed he would have a full squad – Paul Scholes and long
-term casualties aside – to choose from.
Patrice Evra is fit again after injuring his calf in Kyiv, Owen Hargreaves came
through last weekend's clash against Middlesbrough unscathed, Louis Saha is
available and Michael Carrick, who's not played since fracturing his elbow on 2
October, trained all week with the first-team.
"We have everyone fit apart from Paul Scholes. It is the strongest position we
have been so far this season with the squad available," declared Sir
Alex. "Carrick has trained all week, Owen Hargreaves came through his game
last week, played 65 minutes and he is ready for tomorrow also
"Saha's available and it could not come at a better time because in big games you
hope you are going to have your strongest team available and apart from Paul
Scholes I think we have that."
Gary Neville, although he played for United's Reserves team on Thursday night,
won't be involved, even though Sir Alex said it's "great to have him back."
