Young is likely to return to United squad for Saturday's Barclays Premier League encounter with Stoke City.
The England winger suffered a knee injury during the win against Fulham in the first home game of the season.
Sir Alex said: 'Everyone came back from the internationals fit. Which is a bonus. It is always a time when you're a bit concerned about getting the players back but, fortunately, we've been lucky this time. Also Ashley Young is fit. Chris Smalling is not quite there but is making progress.
'Young has shown his qualities. Very few players can cross the ball as well as he can and his goalscoring ratio is very good for us. For a wide player that’s very good. I don’t think you can underestimate that or forget it. I think any player coming to our club with ability and who also had a good record at Aston Villa will have the determination to do well.'
