Nani facing emotional return trip

Reds' winger Nani is relishing his return to former club Sporting Lisbon for the Reds' opening Champions League group game. "It's going to be emotional going back," said the winger, who is likely to be among the substitutes. "My heart is in Lisbon but, as a pro, I want nothing other than a United win. I've spoken to Cristiano and we both feel there could be a few early nerves about returning home. But if we can score first the pressure will be on Sporting." As Nani waited for word of whether he will face his old club, he welcomed the availability of Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo, who had been suspended. "Having Wayne and Cristiano back gives us an extra edge. Wayne's recovery is a real positive, particularly with two huge battles coming up against Sporting and then Chelsea on Sunday."
