Man Utd ace Hargreaves: Lovely to be back

Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Fri, 03/19/2010 - 03:36

Owen Hargreaves was delighted with his playing return for Manchester United reserves last night.

The England midfielder was handed 45 minutes against Burnley.

Hargreaves told manutd.com: "It was lovely to be back in a team environment. It's been about 16 months, I think, while I've been having surgery and individual rehab, so having team-mates around you, getting used to playing on a bigger pitch and having opponents was great. It's been a very long time and it was great to do that first step.

" I don't think I could have anticipated the rehab and the whole thing taking as long as it has. It's been incredibly frustrating but I guess you just have to deal with it, take it step by step, try to be patient and try to do what's best. Sometimes you can't force things. Today was the first step and hopefully I can kick on from here."
