Sir Alex Ferguson, "Louis has returned to training now and is not doing too badly," he said. "The main thing is that he is with the main group now, so hopefully he will be available."

Saha himself will not be rushing back, as he wants to finally out this injury behind him. "I am pretty good now. I have just started training this week and I am at 95 per cent. I have to make sure now to get that last five per cent. The Carling Cup is a realistic target but I have to make sure and be 100 per cent fit because I don't want the same story recurring.

"It has been very frustrating. It has been too much and I have to make sure it is right now so it doesn't happen again. It has been difficult. I go away with France and something happened every time. It was just bad luck."
