Man Utd boss Ferguson unsure about risking Ferdinand today

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson is unsure about playing Rio Ferdinand at West Ham United today.

Ferdinand has started training this week and, so far, come through without a reaction.

It leaves Ferguson wrestling with a dilemma about whether to push Ferdinand through another session on Saturday in the knowledge that if he comes through without a hitch, he could be rushed back to face Carlo Ancelotti's men, or hold him back.

"Rio has started training," said Ferguson.

"He has only been training two days and then just a light session on Friday.

"I have to decide whether we bring in him on Saturday, or give him a day off and start him on Wednesday again.

"He is more likely to be fit for Fulham."
