Fletcher said he felt it was important to speak with captain Bruno Fernandes, who could make a return to the matchday squad following a three-game absence.
The former Scotland international also wanted to chat to Matheus Cunha and Benjamin Sesko, two of our summer arrivals.
Although Fletcher will converse with his squad informally around Carrington, he's keen to get to know this particular pair better, as he hasn't been around the first-team set-up as much this term due to his involvement with our Under-18s.
The second part of Darren's pre-match press conference also touched upon the words he shared with compatriot and former boss Sir Alex Ferguson, as well as his views on the scrutiny that modern United players face.
