Manchester United midfielder Owen Hargreaves is due back in training tomorrow having undergone surgery in the US on tendinitis in both knees.

United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has stated he expects the England midfielder to be available for United's final three group games in the Champions League, meaning he will return against CSKA Moscow on 3 November if that estimate proves correct.

Hargreaves will not be rushed, however, given he last appeared for United at Chelsea on 21 September last year

was very very happy with kusack last night.
i think now he should be the man between the post's till van der sar is back.
if he does what he did last night it will be hard for van der sar to walk onto the starting 11.

following on from blahs thread on the greatest winger, the two names that came up reguarly were giggs and ronaldo, so i have made a poll to see who you alll think is the greatest winger

the poll will be available for 3 weeks then we will find out who is the fans favourite

Sir Alex was voted 'The Best Coach in the World' according to an online poll carried out by 'Goal.com'.

He polled almost 47% of the votes cast.
Contrast that with 'The Special One' who came in second with a poll of 27% and you can see the overall depth of respect that SAF commands.

The final results were :~

1. Sir Alex Ferguson .... 46.11%
   
2. Jose Mourinho .... 26.95%
   
3. Josep 'Pep' Guardiola .... 13.77%
   
4. Marcello Lippi .... 8.38%
   
5. Fabio Capello .... 4.79%
   

Would you, for half a million pounds, be able to stay away from football for two years?

Not being allowed to watch it.

Not being allowed to say anything football related.

Not being allowed to get information about your or any football club.

Nothing.

I wouldn't. It would be just too hard.
