INJURY UPDATE!
-
Sir Alex Ferguson has confirmed that Nemanja Vidic, Gary Neville and Louis Saha are all making good progress with their recovery from injury, while Patrice Evra should be fit to face Middlesbrough on Saturday.
The French left-back hobbled out of Tuesday's 2-0 win over Sheffield United with a calf complaint after a heavy tackle by Colin Kazim-Richards in the 21st minute.
Sir Alex says Evra has responded to treatment and will be available for the Teessiders' visit, as will John O'Shea (calf) and Rio Ferdinand (groin).
Elsewhere on the injury front, the United boss is hoping to have Neville (ankle) available for United's trip to Everton on Saturday week, while Vidic (collarbone) has a chance of returning to action in two weeks time.
Sir Alex hasn't put an exact date on Saha's possible return from a hamstring strain, but the boss insists things are looking much more positive.
"The situation is getting better," he told Manchester United Radio. "John O'Shea and Rio are back for Saturday and I think Patrice Evra will also be okay.
"Gary won't be ready for Middlesbrough or Milan but will hopefully be back for the Everton match. Vidic has been training and he could be ready in two weeks, while Louis Saha is starting to progress a bit now." -

Vidic progressing very well
Nemanja Vidic headlines the better news from the treatment room as United prepare to face Middlesbrough on Saturday.
Although the Serbian defender will not be fit to face Boro, his boss believes he could be available for the final few fixtures, including the FA Cup final against Chelsea on 19 May.
"Vidic is coming along very, very well and he starts training on Monday," said Sir Alex at his pre-Middlesbrough press conference.
"He's been doing some physical work in the gym but on Monday he'll start some serious work and hopefully that brings him to possibly being available for the latter games.
"We've got Rio Ferdinand, John O'Shea and Patrice Evra fit for tomorrow which gives us a far healthier look.
"Gary Neville is progressing quite well, there's a chance he'll be ready for Everton.
"We'll make a decision on Ji-sung Park next week. We've seen the specialist and hopefully we can get an opinion on what the next stage should be. Louis Saha's continuing his progress with the physios but I don't think he'll be fit this week." -
i wonder whats with Park injury?? it can;t come at the worst time.. and i'm sure the Milan would be more than relieved notto see him in the name list.. he was such a thorn in their last semi final fixture with PSV
