Ryan Giggs has welcomed the selection "headache" for Sir Alex Ferguson now Manchester United injured stars are set to return.

Anderson, Rio Ferdinand and Gary Neville are all poised to come back into contention after shaking off long term knocks. With United already behind Chelsea in the Premier League table, the injection of quality into the squad is needed.

Speaking to the club's official website, Giggs said: “The squad is looking really strong.

“We’ve got Rio to come back in, Nev hasn’t played yet, and Anderson is back too. So it’s looking really good.”

“It’s a headache for the boss, but one he would rather have than to be struggling for players,” added Giggs. “We’ll need everyone because it’s a long season. The manager realises that."

MANCHESTER UNITED GOAL: Right place, right time - 1-0 United. Wayne Rooney finds himself unmarked six yards out to coolly finish past Pepe Reina after Jordan Henderson’s attempted headed clearance from a corner arrives straight at the feet of the striker. That should liven the action up on the field good and proper.
