David Moyes has finally had some good news - Robin van Persie's resumed full training after injury.

Under-fire Manchester United boss Moyes is facing a fourth consecutive loss on Saturday, when Swansea visit Old Trafford.

While Van Persie won’t be available for that game, he could resume his strike partnership with fellow crock Wayne Rooney in the champions' crunch clash at Chelsea on Sunday week.

Van Persie has been out for a month with a thigh problem, but handed Moyes a massive boost on Thursday by resuming full training at United’s Carrington complex.

The £24million signing recently returned from his native Holland, where he spent two weeks working with PSV Eindhoven’s fitness coach Arno Phillips.

Van Persie, who has netted 10 times in 16 games this season, has worked with Phillips before and Moyes is desperate to pair the talismanic Dutchman with Rooney in the hope that between them they can save United’s shocker of a season.

Meanwhile, United's former youth coach Eric Harrison claims Moyes should not have binned the retiring Sir Alex Ferguson’s backroom staff when he arrived from Everton in the summer.

Harrison says Moyes can still turn the Reds around - if he seeks Fergie’s help.

“They certainly should have kept the staff that they had and they shouldn’t have brought so many in from Everton,” he said.

“Sir Alex Ferguson will be having a word with him, no doubt about that. He won’t be saying ‘you have to do this and you have to do that’. He will do it nice and quietly.

“I think the pair should get together quite a lot and he should listen seriously to Sir Alex Ferguson.”
