Moyes feels the weight of expectation
Date published: 17 September 2013
DAVID Moyes has vowed to uphold Manchester United’s fine European traditions.
Three times winners of the Champions League in its different guises, United were England’s first entrants in the competition.
Wayne Rooney is expected to start, though Moyes revealed the striker will require the special headband he wore on Saturday.
Rafael and Phil Jones also trained to varying degrees, as did Shinji Kagawa, although he is yet to fully shake off the flu virus that kept him out of the weekend win over Crystal Palace.
One absentee will be winger Adnan Januzaj, the 18–year–old Belgian who made a terrific debut against Palace, hit by UEFA eligibility criteria. He will sit out both tomorrow’s game and the trip to Shakhtar Donetsk next month.
