Man Utd’s Scotland ace Fletcher eyeing World Cup qualifiers return

Darren Fletcher is hoping to be back in action for both club and country in time for the start of the 2014 World Cup qualifiers later this year.

The Manchester United midfielder has taken time out from the game to recover from a chronic bowel condition which has ravaged him for the past year or so but is on the road to recovery with Scotland qualifiers in September in mind although he is not putting any pressure on himself.

"I'm still on medication, I'm still not training, but slowly but surely I'm getting better,” he said.

"I'm not putting a timescale on a comeback, I think that's the best thing. With the condition it's hard to tell.

"I want to be 100 per cent when I come back. I think I've tried before when that's not been the case and it's proven very difficult, so this time I want to make sure I'm 100 per cent, which is going to benefit Scotland and Manchester United."
