Daley Blind hopes his injury problems with Manchester United are over.

A knee ligament injury on international duty in November in a friendly against Latvia saw him fall victim to the injury curse that has swept through United's dressing room.

"It was disappointing, but it was an injury I couldn't really do anything about," he said. "Somebody fell on my knee.

"It was not a muscle injury or something that happened because of tiredness. So it was really just unlucky. It was just an unlucky moment for me unfortunately.

"It could have been worse, but I tried to feel positive and work hard every day to come back stronger. I hope to start now.

"Apart from this injury I've been really fit during my career so I hope it stays that way.

"It was bit hard getting over the injury but it's a nice group and everybody was really helping me every day and every week. It's just like home, so I feel good being here."
