United reject Hargreaves 'bad-treatment' claims

Manchester United have rejected Owen Hargreaves’ claims he was incorrectly given injections to cure long-standing knee problems during his time at Old Trafford.

In the aftermath of Wednesday’s Carling Cup win for Manchester City against Birmingham, when Hargreaves marked his Blues debut with a goal, the 30-year-old outlined the unhappiness over sections of the treatment he received to combat a tendinitis injury he had before leaving Bayern Munich in 2007.
