"We're convinced he'll be back next season," said Sir Alex. "He's a sensational player, one of the best I've ever had."
And on the bizarre injury that blurred his vision when playing but not while scouting he said:
"It was an injury we've never been used to,"
"It must have been worrying Paul because when you've got a problem with blurred vision and nobody can really give you a reason for it, then it's a concern."
"Fortunately he got back into training, he played the second half of the last game of the season against Charlton and he did very well."
