Manchester
United's players were put through their paces on Friday as they went
through their preparations for Monday's clash against West Brom at The
Hawthorns, and looked to be in decent shape.
Ashley
Young, who has been out since August because of groin and pelvis
problems looked sharp in the session, as did Marouane Fellaini who came
on against Everton in the Red Devils' last match after being sidelined
through injury.
The
United stars returning from international duty also looked to be fully
fit, as the likes of Robin van Persie, Angel di Maria and Daley Blind
all lifted heavy weights and went through their stretches.

Manager
Louis van Gaal will be relieved that his players have returned
unscathed from international duty, especially given his injury list.
Ander Herrera, Phil Jones and Michael Carrick have been out injured, and the Dutch boss can ill-afford any more problems.
Monday's
trip to West Brom presents United with the chance to build on the two
consecutive victories that moved them up to fourth place in the Premier
League prior to the international break.
