Daniel James is ready to face 'rough treatment'

Manchester United's Daniel James

Leeds [UK], July 27 (ANI): Manchester United winger Daniel James said he is mentally prepared and is not concerned about getting 'rough treatment' as he is used to it.
"If you watch any of my games from last season, I think it's going to happen to me every game. I got some rough treatment against Spurs, but it's literally every game. I'm used to it. It's just about getting back up and getting on with it," Goal.com quoted James as saying.
"Being a winger, I'm always going to get fouled, but it's just about how you get on with it. I don't let it get in my head and just keep going," he added.
The 21-year-old was exposed to some brutal tackles by Tottenham's Moussa Sissoko in Thursday's clash, which the latter ended up losing 1-2.
"The Sissoko one, I've nipped in just before and he's fouled me at the edge of the box in a good position. Part of my game is about winning those fouls and getting in good positions," James said.
James also said he is determined to get into the team.
"The manager brought me in for a reason. Obviously, my aim is to play, but I don't expect to play. We've got amazing forward players here and even the youngsters coming through have done really well. Mason [Greenwood] has scored two, Chongy [Tahith Chong] has done really well and Angel [Gomes] scored. It's always going to be tough, but it's a long season. If it's not there at the start I've just got to keep biding my time and try to get in that team," he said. (ANI)

Manchester United to do everything to get Rashford ready for Liverpool clash

Leeds [UK], Jan 16 (ANI): Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said they will do 'everything' they can to get Marcus Rashford in shape for the Liverpool clash. Rashford sustained a back injury on Thursday during the FA Cup clash against Wolves on Thursday and left the field. "He's a quick healer and he'll play through some pain, definitely, if he's capable, if it's not a bad, bad injury. But we've seen that he's struggled lately - but more when he's been tired," Goal.com quoted Solskjaer as saying. "He wasn't on long enough to be tired so I think it might have been something that just happened there and then. He's been absolutely top this season so we'll do everything we can to get him fit for Sunday. If he's not then we'll play without him," he added. Manchester United secured a 1-0 win against Wolves with the help of Juan Mata's strike. Manchester United will take on Liverpool in Premier L...

"Paul is going to play when he gets his fitness. He is one of the best players in the world when he's in form and we just need to give him time to be 100 per cent fit," Goal.com quoted Solskjaer as saying.

"It might be 45 minutes in the first game, it might be half an hour, it might be 90.
