Neville to face Merseysiders
-
Gary Neville will make his first competitive appearance since October when he lines up for United's Reserves on Wednesday evening.
The Reds' club captain is part of the squad which will travel to Widnes to face Everton, fuelling hopes that he will be ready for a senior return in the near future.
Neville, who has struggled with an ankle injury since March last year, is by far the most senior member of a 16-man squad selected by Brian McClair and Jim Ryan, although first-team squad member Danny Simpson also travels.
Ritchie Jones, Craig Cathcart and Michael Lea are also included in the party, having returned from their respective loans at Yeovil and Royal Antwerp.
United squad: Zieler, Heaton; Neville, Simpson, Eckersley, Chester, Cathcart, Lea; Hewson, Gray, Jones, S Evans, Cleverley; Dong, Brandy, Fagan. -

Neville returns with rare strike
Neville marked his return to action with a lucky goal
Manchester United captain Gary Neville marked his latest return from injury with a rare goal, scoring against Everton in a reserve game on Wednesday. Neville has not played for United's first team since breaking an ankle against Bolton in March 2007.
He subsequently suffered thigh and calf problems and missed last month's game against Roma because of ankle pain. Neville scored via a couple of deflections and showed no ill-effects before coming off at half-time. -

I read a report with Viv Anderson and he remarked that next test for Neville is a real match.
hopefully, SAF can slowly introduce him and ease him back into the team.
With him and Scholes coming back, it may seems to have two new signings..
