Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson admits he could call up Ritchie de Laet for this week's visit to Burnley.
“We have been having a hard time with defensive injuries over the last two years,” Ferguson said. “But people are capable of coming in for us.
“(Nemanja) Vidic is back in training and that’s good news. He should be back for Wigan away on Saturday. Jonny Evans is injured again, while Gary Neville has only just started training, and Rafael Da Silva is still missing with his dislocated shoulder. Wes Brown hasn’t had much training, but he has done well and Ritchie de Laet, who was on the bench today, may figure now.”
