Twitter reacts to Schweinsteiger returning to Manchester United training

Bastian Schweinsteiger has returned to Manchester United training

German superstar Bastian Schweinsteiger made a return to Manchester United’s training session at the Carrington complex ahead of the Red Devil’s game against Fenerbahce in the UEFA Europa league. The former Bayern Munich star was a regular for Louis van Gaal‘s side, but has been frozen out under Jose Mourinho.

Schweinsteiger has watched from the sidelines, not even playing a single minute for Mourinho in the Premier League, and was previously made to train with the reserves, a move that infuriated many Manchester United fans. However, there was a nice surprise in store for Red Devil fans, as Schweinsteiger and Phil Jones were both involved in the first team’s training session.

Predictably, many Manchester United fans on Twitter enjoyed the news greatly, using the social network to express their glee. Here is how Twitter reacted to Bastian Schweinsteiger returning to Manchester United.

Twitter will be shattered to smithereens if Schweinsteiger gets a game before Mkhitaryan.

Phil Jones' return to training is still a bigger shock than Schweinsteiger's.
