"It's difficult to say how that process will go, but I think he's making good progress at this moment. We have to see day by day how the progress will go, then we have to follow up," he told Sky Sports. "Of course when he's available and he's here so you have the option to play, but we don't expect him in that short notice to be 100 per cent fit. So we have to wait sometime more. We need all positions doubled because of the number of games. HAVE YOUR SAY! What should be Manchester United's starting line-up against Wolves? Comment below. "We need the competition, you always have to deal with suspensions and injuries, with the form of players. Also from a technical perspective, we need double positioning and yes you need good players, but also every player needs perspective to play. "I'm happy with the squad and I want a strong squad and competition in the squad so I'm happy with the current players who are in, so if we go with the squad into the season, that's fine."
