Dong joins senior squad
United's recent injury concerns have prompted Sir Alex Ferguson to promote Chinese striker Dong Fangzhuo to the first-team squad.
The 22-year-old has already been involved in a couple of Reserve games having finally completed his move to Old Trafford after spending two years on loan at Royal Antwerp.
Injuries to Louis Saha (hamstring) and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer (knee), along with the departure of Henrik Larsson mean the Reds are rather light up front.
With a busy period of matches coming up, Sir Alex has opted to call the forward up to the senior squad.
"Dong will be coming into the squad," confirmed Sir Alex. "He has needed a lot of hard work and we've been doing that.
"He's got some terrific attributes. He's lightening quick and has a marvellous physique. He's a very athletic boy. So he'll be added to the pool."

早上出门看到体坛上醒目标题注明董方卓被弗爵爷上调一队，于是买了份体坛瞅瞅。本来一直都不看好小董在曼联的前景，不是因为他的能力而是曼联有能力的球员太多。
不过不管怎样，他的上升潜力已经被弗格森看到并认可，所以他得以回到曼联签订正式合同成为曼联的一员，从某种意义上来说不管将来能否在曼联站稳脚跟，至少他是有机会去争取站稳脚跟的。曼联这样的强队都面临多线作战而且每场比赛强度都不小，伤病是不可避免的。而现在董方卓等来了机会，就看他能否把握住，顺利的话，也许他本周末就可以替补登场。
让我们拭目以待吧……
