It is three weeks since we were last talking about a Manchester United match on a Saturday, and that was the fall-out from the 2-2 defeat at Bournemouth and inconsistencies in the decisions of referee Stuart Attwell. Now it is the fitness of Lisandro Martinez, given Harry Maguire is suspended for Monday's encounter with Leeds. Leeds need points to stay away from relegation trouble, Manchester United need four wins and a draw from their final seven games to confirm a place in next season's Champions League. Carrick is speaking to the media on a Saturday as he had given everyone a day off after four days in Maynooth. It will be good to have a match to focus on.
