Selection poser

Hernandez will be hoping to play some part in a crucial Premier League clash with Chelsea on Sunday, but faces stiff competition from Robin van Persie, Wayne Rooney and Danny Welbeck for a striking berth. "It's a good problem to have," said Ferguson. "I don't always enjoy it [telling players they're not playing] but it has to be done. "In fairness to all the players they've accepted it well and adapted to it. "I don't have any great problems other than having to tell one or two of them they're not playing."
