Manchester United winger Antonio Valencia is delighted to see their medical room start to clear.

His performance in Saturday's Barclays Premier League triumph over Bolton emphasised why Valencia is not the only one who is glad more accustomed options to fill the right-back role are at hand.

"It is really pleasing thinking that we are getting everyone back to full fitness," he told MUTV.

"It is nice to be back in my favoured position, that I have always played in throughout my career. At full-back, going forward is not a problem. Defending is slightly more difficult.

"There is more pressure because you are playing closer to your own goal. You have to be really focused and concentrated to make sure you don't commit an error that can lead to a goal.

"It is the same for any defender so I have to work hard to stay really sharp because that is area of the field where you get punished."
