Mick Clegg has lauded Darren Fletcher for overcoming his personal health problems at Manchester United.
Clegg spent 11 years as strength and condition coach at United and he played a significant role in many players' periods of rehab after injury. Clegg helped Alan Smith recover from his dislocated ankle and Wayne Rooney from his broken metatarsal, for example.
However, Clegg had a different challenge to help Fletcher with illness. Fletcher, who is now United's technical director, made 342 appearances at Old Trafford but that would have been more if he wasn't forced to deal with a debilitating bowel disease.
