Solskjaer in for United

Manchester United striker Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is ready to face Chelsea tomorrow in the Worthington Cup after recovering from a slight calf strain.

David Beckham is likely to be in from the start with manager Sir Alex Ferguson declaring the England captain fully fit after reports he had a knee injury.

Ferguson wants to bring in at least one of his younger players but expects Chelsea to be at full strength.

Kieran Richardson, Michael Stewart and Danny Pugh are in contention and long-serving defender David May might also be involved.

Northern Ireland international Roy Carroll could replace Fabien Barthez in goal after playing in the previous two rounds.

Team (from): Barthez, Carroll, G Neville, Blanc, May, Brown, O’Shea, Silvestre, Beckham, Solskjaer, Veron, P Neville, Giggs, Scholes, Van Nistelrooy, Forlan, Chadwick, Stewart, Richardson, Pugh, Ricardo.
