Fletcher remembers United’s tough times

Darren Fletcher is using the memory of 2006 to make his Manchester United team-mates aware of how quickly fortunes can turn.

At times during that difficult campaign eight years ago, it seemed United were headed for oblivion.

Within the space of three weeks Roy Keane was booted out by Alex Ferguson, sponsors Vodafone quit their shirt sponsorship deal two years early and United crashed out of the Champions League at the group stage.
