NEWS NEWS BLOG SPORT brings you the latest news and gossip coming out of Old Trafford.
Manchester United were given a welcome boost ahead of their Champions League tie against PSV Eindhoven, with Anthony Martial and Wayne Rooney returning to training.
Martial and Rooney were absent from the 2-1 win over Watford last weekend due to illness and a foot injury respectively.
Louis van Gaal is still without five players for the Champions League group encounter.
But reports suggest both Martial and Rooney are in contention to face the reigning Dutch champions.
Van Gaal has cooled talk that Arjen Robben could head to Old Trafford.
The Red Devils boss has already underlined his desire to add flair players to his attack.
Van Gaal worked with Robben during their time together at Bayern Munich, but a reunion appears to be off the cards.
“If I answer that question, then you are writing [United are trying to sign] Robben, what you have written about Ronaldo and that I didn't say,” Van Gaal said.

Patrice Evra claims he asked Cristiano Ronaldo whether he would rejoin United.
Ronaldo has since gone on to become a superstar at Real Madrid, and Evra, who played for the Red Devils between 2006 and 2014 admitted he tried to twist Ronaldo’s arm.
“Yeah, yeah. A lot. And he said 'but for the moment I don't know’,” Evra told BBC Radio 5 live.
"When I was talking with him he said 'but you know the way I love Manchester United'."
