We're lucky he's got that Far Eastern honour and pride.

[Kompressor]

Didn't have a proper pre-season, once he's at full fitness I expect and hope he'll be a key player,

[Horatio Caine]

its a shame but united are not familiar with this type of player...

I never see Valencia start in the central position to go run to the byline you know. Lol.

[i5_PRODUCER]

was impressed with valencia the other night against chelsea. end product ( crossing ) was off but the work rate >>

[Tee]

should be a right back

[Michel Kane]

should be a right back

Would be monstrous. Not sure about his positioning but can be worked on.

Imagine Zaha & Valencia down one side, eeeeesssssh.

[darkman]

Someone who can't defend and someone who's yet to play a game in the top flight?

 

"eeeesssssh" indeed

[Michel Kane]

Valencia can't defend?

Zaha doesn't have potential?

Lol, I beg no-one entertain this guy please.

[Agony]

Valencia should be starting games every week on the right...

...side of the bench sitting next to Lindergaard.

[darkman]

Valencia can't defend?

Zaha doesn't have potential?

Lol, I beg no-one entertain this guy please.

 

Valencia is not and will never make a good enough right back

 

Zaha has potential. Exactly

[Captain Planet]

Fergie deployed him there a few times you know...

Just food for thought

[youcleanwepaint]

Fergie deployed him there a few times you know...

Just food for thought

done alright there too I must add

[darkman]

Fergie deployed him there a few times you know...

Just food for thought

 

He did and then put him back in his best position

[Yoshie]

Valencia > Jones at RB 100%

 

Swear he played there last season, maybe one before there?

Link up between him and Nani was nice.

[i5_PRODUCER]

Agreed Valencia @ RB is Beast but

 

 

 

I'm not even sure about the whole evra/baines thing. Evra last season >>>

[Agony]

Valencia @ RB was a nice lil' experiment but it shouldn't continue at the expense of Rafael, Fabio and Varela.

David Moyes gives positive update on Javier Hernandez

Javier Hernandez has been back in training with Manchester United this week and is closing in on a return to first team action.

The 25-year-old is yet to feature under David Moyes having suffered a hamstring injury during the pre-season but it won’t be much longer before we see him back in action.

Speaking to MUTV about the team news for Liverpool, Moyes said: ”To be fair, we have got very few injuries, only Rafa really.

“Jonny got a game, which we felt he needed because he had missed a bit of pre-season, coming in and out at different times.

“Nani has done more training and is getting closer to it, Chicharito has had a hamstring but he has trained for the last three or four days and is doing much better. So we are very close to full strength. Maybe it is only Rafa who is a doubt.”

United really missed having Hernandez against Chelsea on Monday given his goalscoring record against the London club and it will be great having him back in the squad because Chicharito’s ability to score vital goals will make him such an important player for Moyes.

There was also good news about Nani and Jonny Evans who are both close to full fitness meaning that United will have an almost fully fit squad going into September.
