Good news.
Darren Fletcher

Brilliant.
Post the contents, not the fecking link. Stop giving that shit rag hits. It's bad enough most on here are reading it.
We really have missed him over the last three years. We would have been even more successful with him around.
He hasn't.
He has been in the English League squad I think he meant, not in the Champions League squad though, which can be changed in January.
I don't think a player can come back, after the amount of time he's been unable to train for, in the modern game. I really hope I'm wrong. Before his condition took hold, he had become a fantastic player.
A midfield of Carrick, Fletcher(at his best), Fellaini, Cleverly, Anderson is really good in depth and good quality too IMO.
Yeah, except ever having Fletcher at his best is unlikely, and you never know what you get from Anderson. So that's Carrick, Fellaini, Cleverley and a lot of maybes.
Christ, I found myself excited for a moment writing a new name among our midfielders, despite all the doubts about him!
He's done, move on.
That's sad news. But I feared as much when he wasn't back for the pre-season. Still sad to hear. 
Love Darren Fletcher but he is done, no way would he ever be able to return to the form or even get near the form he had been in before going injured. Such a shame.
You're all idiots.
Yes, he has.

Strangely enough, this article was written about five hours after the other article on the Daily Mail indicating he's finished, what a fantastic news organisation they truly are.
Can't see him being back in November.
As if we would have the time to get Fletcher up to speed through matches - league, cup, europe, whatever - in a few months. It's just not going to happen. If he's lucky and actually fit maybe he'll get a loan deal to the Championship or something and we'll evaluate things against next summer, but it's so bloody unlikely.
Great to see everybody knows more than Darren, his doctors, and the club.
Amen
I know right, you'd swear he hadn't played football properly in three years or something.
Great news this. Really hope he can get back and contribute somehow. Even if it is only from the bench and as a back up until he's up to some sort of speed. So sad what happened to him.
If they say he can be healthy and fit for football, I've got nothing to argue with. Getting him up to scratch mid-season for United after missing so much football is just not going to happen. I don't think you need to be a part of United to realise how much this is a long shot.
Dont really need to be a club doctor to see how difficult it will be for him to get back to a level good enough to play for us after everything's that has happened. It isnt just about being able to play again but about being able to play for us again.
Unfortunately Darren is finished at the top level. It's a shame because he was one our best players between 2008-2010.
Nice to see him back in training today with the lads. Good luck
He's back training? That's very encouraging
Wouldn't push it too far, but hope he has a part to play in the second half of the season

I've just wiped him from my memory, despite considerable affection for him. I can't believe he can come back. That way I can't be disappointed.
I would love to see him back.
Great news
I'd like to see him play a few more games for United but I have realistic expectations of what level he will be
I really think if he can get fit again, he'd be best served going on loan to the Championship at least until January to see how he gets on. Great to see him back training again either way.
Great to see him back. He won't be at the level he was but we should give him every chsnce to work towards a starting spot again.
Good to see him back.
Looking at the way he played in his limited appearances last season if he can get match fit, which to be fair he didn't really approach last year, he'll provide decent cover for Carrick, as opposed to the partner for him he's been in years gone by.

I'm not expecting anything so if he comes back anything like he was, it'll be a massive bonus.
I understand the thinking behind your suggestion ... but games in midfield in the championship demand a different type of fitness, as they are less skilful and more frenetic.
I'd keep him to a regular series of reserve, dead end CL and CC Cup matches. Will be more than enough game time there to rediscover fitness and form. It would be magic to have him back as an option for the squad.
He can't play in the CL games.
oh. thats a bummer for him.
If it wasn't Fletcher I would say "needs to bulk up" but hey he has always been a skinny fecker and never seemed to have problems with the physical play in the PL.
I don't know if he will ever be as good as he once was for us but let's all hope for the best.
