Manchester United coach massive receive boost ahead of Palace clash

Manchester United will have all the injured players ready for Crystal Palace, Jose Mourinho has confirmed.

Paul Pogba, Marouane Fellaini, Anthony Martial and Antonio Valencia were all doubts for the Palace match but the gaffer has confirmed he will have a full house from which he will make his selections.

“Rashford came back with a little problem but he’s ready for Saturday’s game.  Lukaku is ready, I would say ready with a little risk, but ready. And Pogba, we knew he would use this break to recover. We don’t have players that are out of the game tomorrow. We have a huge 23 group to choose from. Martial stayed with us, he didn’t go to the national team. They were aware of his problems and with their permission, he stayed.

“He worked really hard. I like to call that a pre-injury, he worked really hard with the staff.  He is ready for tomorrow and will play tomorrow. He is ready to accumulate matches and play for us – but three in a row in the same week? I’m not sure of that. ”

“Antonio (Valencia) is going to play tomorrow – the same with Fellaini. He also stayed – no national team. They let him stay in spite of playing 90 minutes against Man City. He really needed to stay to prepare himself after the injury he had before. He is good,” Mourinho told a press conference on Friday.

“The supporters cannot do more than they are already doing. We went through a difficult period and they were fantastic. In some matches, they push the team to different levels. We need results and points but also performances because we like good performances to go on top of the results,” the manager assured.
