Darren Fletcher is back in action

Manchester United play­maker Dar­ren Fletcher made his first appear­ance in nine months in the 2–1 defeat against Scot­tish Premier League side Aber­deen at Pit­todrie in Neil Simpson’s testi­mo­nial on Tues­day even­ing. The Scot­land inter­na­tional came on as a sub­sti­tute for sum­mer sign­ing Nick Pow­ell in the 60th minute of the encounter.

Manchester United man­ager Sir Alex Fer­guson has pre­vi­ously told the press that he did not know when Dar­ren Fletcher would be back in first team action. Sir Alex Fer­guson: “It has been quiet pro­gress for Dar­ren Fletcher. He joined in train­ing a couple of weeks ago and it is one of those situ­ations where you say let us see how he does because he has had a really dif­fi­cult time. There­fore, I was not really pla­cing too much hope in it but let us see how he does. He has got to the stage where he feels he needs a game.”
