Van der Sar set for comeback
-
Holland are confident Reds goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar will be fit to face Slovenia in the next bout of Euro 2008 qualifiers on Wednesday.
Van der Sar has been suffering from a calf injury and hasnÂ’t played since United beat Lille in the Champions League on 7 March. But Dutch coach Marco van Basten says the 36-year-old keeper is nearing a return, which is good news ahead of the Reds' Premiership clash with Blackburn on Saturday.
"It will become clear over the next couple of days whether Edwin will play. He trained on Saturday, but not with the rest of the players. If we didn't think he had a chance of playing we wouldn't have included him in the squad." -

I think he's slowly recovering and playing for the Netherlands will boost his match fitness.Originally posted by iceFatboy:if he can't play for MUFC, he can play for Holland??
