Gary Neville says he is ready to do his bit for the United
cause should Sir Alex Ferguson need to call on him as the Reds bid for
double glory.
The skipper has struggled with a series of niggling injuries following ankle ligament damage sustained in March last year.
He
returned to action in the Reds' quarter-final victory over Roma at Old
Trafford, coming on a substitute for the final nine minutes.
The
right-back has not been involved since, but insists he is ready and
willing should he be called upon at Wigan on Sunday and in the
Champions League final later this month.
"I am feeling good. I
have been training and travelling with the team for the last seven or
eight matches and really enjoying being back among the lads," he said.
"It
is going to be difficult for the manager with the defence playing so
well, and I understand that it is almost impossible for him to get me
in. I totally accept that.
"The matches are too important to
help players get their fitness back but I am there. I am fit and have
been for six to eight weeks and if I am required or am needed at any
point, I have to be ready.
"It has been a frustrating season for
me. But that will all be lifted if we win the title and the Champions
League. Players get injuries. The most important thing is that this
club wins trophies."
Unluckily for him, he won't get a champions medal if Man Utd win the BPL. He doesn't satisfy the required number of matches played....
