Ole Gunnar Solskjaer believes Alexis Sanchez could have avoided his recent injury had he spoken with him at half-time when he could have taken the necessary precautions.
Solskjaer replied: "You have to ask him, a player loves to play football, doesn’t matter who you are and he’s been hindered by injury, I know how frustrating that can be and how eager you are to get back.
"Maybe in the Reading game at HT he should have told me to come off because the next 15 or 20 mins were a setback.
"But he’s champing at the bit in training. His attitude has been fantastic in training and I’m looking forward to seeing him, I’ve got loads of good players to choose from."
Sanchez has been missing for most of this month with a tight problem he picked up against Reading.
