Good News About Ronaldo

Winger Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to make an early return from injury for Manchester United's opening Champions League match against Villarreal.

Ronaldo, sidelined for two months after undergoing an ankle operation in July, was expected to be out until October.

But manager Sir Alex Ferguson said Ronaldo could feature on Wednesday, as well as against Chelsea next weekend.

"He's been making great strides in the direction towards first-team football," said the United boss.

Ferguson added: "Ronaldo is training now, he's with the first team and he's aiming to be a substitute at Chelsea on 21 September. He's come on leaps and bounds.

"I think we mentioned a couple of weeks ago he was making rapid progress in terms of overcoming the injury problem he had and the training he's been doing with the physios and Tony Strudwick the fitness coach."

United will be without midfielder Michael Carrick, who injured his right ankle midway through the first half of Saturday's 2-1 defeat by Liverpool, for the start of their European Cup defence.

The 28-year-old England international is expected to miss the Premier League clash against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, as is Nemanja Vidic after the defender was sent off at Anfield.

that is the antithesis of reality. if crystiano as you say wants to make it to madrid he'll have to prove he aint a one hit wonder, while helping us retain our title.

didn't lots of people say that after the 06/07 season too?
if so yeah he didn't repeat it, he doubled it

Carrick's out for 6 weeks with a broken bone in his foot he got against Liverpool. He is the man that makes our midfield tick and a passing trump card Well now is the time for Anderson to really prove his worth alongside Hargreaves and possibly Fletcher since Scholes is suspended for tonight.
