Fergie is the first to admit he has injury concerns for five players ahead of this
week's Champions League quarterfinal against Roma.
"I had to make the changes because of injuries," said Sir Alex Ferguson after
victory over Aston Villa yesterday.
"Carrick, Rio and Patrice Evra all had injuries and then Giggs got injured towards
the end. With the rain continually coming down, the pitch was starting to prove
very heavy and that can be a problem with hamstrings. Hopefully they'll be all
right (for Rome)."
The fifth player causing concern for the manager is Edwin van der Sar. The
Dutchman missed the Villa match, leaving Tomasz Kuszczak to start in goal with
Ben Foster - who is ineligible for Europe - on the bench.
"Edwin van der Sar may be a doubt for Tuesday," said Sir Alex.
"He's got a groin problem again, it's happened two or three times in the last few
weeks. We'll see how he is over the next few days. Not risking him today gives
us a better chance."
