Injury concerns for Reds
-
Louis Saha is still not fit enough to play any part in Saturday's FA Cup semi-final against Watford, while the Reds will have to wait on the fitness of John O'Shea, who suffered a calf injury on Tuesday against Roma.
Saha has missed the Reds' last eight games because of a hamstring strain. He could be available for Tuesday's Premiership clash with Sheffield United at Old Trafford, but he is more likely to be in contention for the squad to face Middlesbrough next Saturday.
O'Shea meanwhile was withdrawn on 52 minutes against Roma on Tuesday after picking a calf knock and he remains a doubt for Saturday's match at Villa Park.
"John didn't train on Friday," confirmed Sir Alex Ferguson at his pre-match press conference. "But hopefully he will be OK for Saturday. Patrice Evra came in at right-back on Tuesday and did very well.
"My other decision is that Paul Scholes is back from suspension. Changing a winning team is very difficult after the way they performed against Roma. But Paul's experience could be important in a semi-final."
The United boss also confirmed that Gary Neville, who was expected to be back for the Sheffield United game, faces at least another week on the sidelines.
Dang, no Neville

Why I keep seeing every football related stuffs that every picture of the footballer or any others illustrates the condtions of the news described so well?
In this case, looking at John O'shea feeling the 'stump', 'pinch', 'blurred', 'disappointed', etc, etc when the news is talking about his injury status.
