Manchester United star Cleverley keen to drop injury-prone tag

Manchester United midfielder Tom Cleverley is determined to put his injury problems behind him.

Cleverley believes his periods on the sidelines have been as a result of unfortunate circumstances rather than a propensity on his part for picking up niggling injuries.

He is hoping his misfortunes are now behind him.

He told Fight To The Finish, United's official diary of the 2011/12 season: "I’d hate to be getting the injury-prone tag, because the injuries I’ve had have all been contact, impact or reckless tackles.

“It’s not like I’m picking up hamstring injuries or thigh injuries all the time.

"Hopefully I’m getting all the bad luck out at the start of my career and I can go on to play as long as Giggsy; he’s the perfect example."
