“Diogo [Dalot] is back training fully,” he told MUTV. “Nemanja [Matic] is back. [Marcos] Rojo is hopefully back next week. Eric [Bailly] and Timothy [Fosu-Mensah] are training with the team from next week onwards.
“We're getting better and better in that respect. In January, I reckon we will have many of them match fit.”
The AZ game will come too soon for Paul Pogba, who is still recovering from an ankle problem.
“Paul is not ready to play but won't be far away,” added the manager.
