Edwin fit to face Bolton
Veteran goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar will be available to face Bolton Wanderers this weekend, according to Sir Alex Ferguson, who will use young shot-stopper Ben Amos as cover.
The Dutchman injured his knee against Chelsea last weekend, and deputies Ben Foster and Tomasz Kuszczak are both currently injured, prompting suggestions that Reserves goalkeeper Ben Amos would make his Premier League debut on Saturday.
However, Sir Alex confirmed Edwin's recovery at his pre-match press conference. “Everyone is OK from last Sunday’s games against Chelsea and Tuesday’s match against Middlesbrough,” the Reds boss said at his pre-match press conference. “Apart from Rodrigo Possebon, of course."
It is astonishing that the 19-year-old Brazilian midfielder escaped Emanuel Pogatetz's tackle without a broken leg or even ligament damage to his knee.
“We’re delighted that Rodrigo’s injury is not more serious," added the boss. "There wasn’t even ligament damage. It’s amazing, really. At the time I feared the worst. You saw the reaction from Nani when it happened, he turned away in horror. It was the same reaction when Eduardo got injured, or even David Busst for Coventry.
“We had to
keep Rodrigo in hospital overnight because of the risk of infection in the wound. It cut him to the bone. He’ll have to go back in to get it closed up. But we’re quite happy with it.”
The manager will use Amos on the bench as cover for van der Sar on Saturday as a groin injury has sidelined Tomasz Kuszczak until next weekend’s trip to Blackburn, while Michael Carrick will return to training after October's international break.
“I won’t risk Tomasz before the Blackburn game. But young Ben Amos came in and did well [against Middlesbrough], he looked comfortable and had the right temperament. So we’re OK in that position. Michael [Carrick] is nowhere near football training yet. I think by the end of the international break he should be back training with us."
