Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson feels they're close to ending their injury woes.

The club have signed a five-year-deal with Toshiba to have the latest hi-tech equipment installed in a new £13million training ground extension.

Fergie said: "We made a couple of signings in the summer but this is the most important step forward we have made in a long, long time.

"Maybe the public won't see that but we'll see it and all the players will appreciate it.

"As most people know, we have been building a new medical centre for the last six months.

"I think they built the pyramids quicker! But it is getting there.

"This partnership brings a new dimension of sports science and medical facilities for our players - and puts us above most clubs in the world."
