Tomasz Kuszczak could find himself in the firing line for Manchester United on Sunday as Sir Alex Ferguson awaits news of a fitness report on Edwin van der Sar. 曼联在线·球迷地带; c" \" \9 c% [& W1 @4 g
The veteran Dutchman failed to play any part in his country's friendly defeat to Switzerland in Geneva on Wednesday night after injuring his left foot in a training ground collision with Dirk Kuyt. 9 Q6 h$ Z  V( l1 |, ]
While the damage was not serious enough to force van der Sar into an immediate flight back to the north west, he must be a major doubt for Spurs' visit to Old Trafford, when United will be looking to get their Premier League title defence up and running after a stuttering start which has seen them collect just two points from their opening three games.
If van der Sar does not make it, Kuszczak will step in for only his seventh league start since arriving from West Brom at the start of last term.
The Poland international at least has the benefit of some recent match practice, having completed the second half of his country's friendly draw with England's Euro 2008 qualifying rivals Russia in Moscow on Wednesday. 曼联,曼联BT,曼联在线视频,曼联图片,曼联新闻,曼联论坛+ k( K, r3 w* m3 X& q6 R$ t" @( M
However, with fitness concerns surrounding so many key players, including Rio Ferdinand, who suffered a minor knock on England duty, a change of keeper is not what Ferguson would have wanted ahead of such a key game in his side's season. 5 X9 O  g$ e9 c/ R2 |
Ironically, it was against Spurs that van der Sar broke his nose last season in a collision with Robbie Keane, an injury that resulted in John O'Shea taking over in goal for the final few minutes of a superb 4-0 triumph. www.imanutd.com, V1 ~, Z6 p" H0 o1 F1 l% t
Given the way his side have started the campaign, Ferguson would probably settle for half that winning margin this week.
There have been contrasting reports of Louis Saha's likely availability after a long-term knee injury and if the Frenchman is not fit, Ferguson would effectively be reliant on the squad who performed creditably at Manchester City last weekend but ultimately lost because of a repeated failure to take chances.
So far, Paul Scholes is the only United player to find the net this term, putting his side in front at Portsmouth, only for the Red Devils to get pegged back in a game which saw Cristiano Ronaldo sent off for aiming a head butt at Richard Hughes.
Sunday's encounter represents the second game of Ronaldo's three-match ban so, with Wayne Rooney also missing, Scholes will once again be a key figure in United's quest for an eagerly-awaited first win. 曼联,曼联BT,曼联在线视频,曼联图片,曼联新闻,曼联论坛/ q6 j) d# ~( P: j" [% j1 R
Given the week they have endured, Tottenham would appear to be perfect opponents.
Yet, no matter who is lined up against them, Scholes is confident United have a squad that will eventually gel into a winning unit. www.imanutd.com. t/ Z" E7 U) p! ~' }- p  G7 Z
"We have signed four new players in the summer and it is just going to take a little bit of time for them to settle," he told MUTV. 曼联,曼联BT,曼联在线视频,曼联图片,曼联新闻,曼联论坛, a  b6 }6 n5 D* m4 t
"I know supporters expect everyone to gel straightaway but it is not that simple.
"They are coming to a new club, finding new houses and meeting new people, which cannot be the easiest thing in the world.
"You only have to look at someone like Didier Drogba. It took him a year to settle in at Chelsea but since then he has been fantastic. And there are many more examples like that." : ^$ K  U* }3 L5 W* ^1 A

在弗格森等待范德萨健康报告的当儿，库扎克将可能将代表曼联在周日的比赛首发上场。
这名经验丰富的荷兰籍门将并不能代表他的祖国在周中的友谊赛，因为他在训练是弄伤了左脚。
虽然他的伤势并没有严重到必须马上回来治疗，但这将使他在周日比赛的上场机会成为疑问。而曼联正期望着在经过糟糕的赛季开局后，能及时反弹来卫冕联赛冠军。
如果范德萨不能上场的话，自转会到来才得到7次首发上场库扎克将首发。
至少这名波兰门将已得到热身的准备，因为他有代表祖国在周中对抗俄罗斯的友谊赛中在下半场上场。
虽然如此，在得到许多主要球员轻微受伤的消息，尤其是费帝南德在代表英格兰时得到轻微的敲伤后，换掉正选门将并不是弗格森在面对周日重要比赛所需要的。
相反的，就是在上赛季对抗热刺时，范德萨的鼻梁被基恩敲断而不能继续比赛，但曼联最后以4-0大胜该队。曼联,曼联BT,曼联在线视频,曼联图片,曼联新闻,曼联论坛/ N; W5 I+ `" d. c0 W: t& u
在了解到队伍这个赛季开局的情况后，弗格森应该只希望能以一半的比数取得胜利。 - 专业·专注·曼联中文网站1 K1 b, o  w4 M( _
一直都有对比的消息关于萨哈的状态，一旦这名法国人无法首发，弗格森就只能依赖对抗曼城时的最佳阵容，但就是因为球员无法把握机会而输掉了德比战。专业曼联球迷网站,曼联球迷的地盘,为广大球迷提供最新曼联新闻与视频资源.: ?$ Y% [% N/ J* S

在经过难熬的一周后，热刺将会是曼联最完美的对手。
不管曼联的阵容是如何，斯科尔斯还是有信心队伍将能融合成一支能取得胜利的队伍。
斯科尔斯说:"我们在夏天签下了四名球员，我觉得他们需要更多时间来适应曼联的打法。我知道球迷们都希望新队员能立刻融入队中，但这并不是很容易的事。他们来到了新球会，正找着新房子以及见到了许多新面孔，而这些对他们来说并不是最容易的事。"

曼联加油！！向五冠王前进！！
