Team News For Roma

 

 As the anticipation begins to build ahead of Wednesday’s Champions League quarter final first leg against Roma, the Manchester United team news has begun to filter through the grapevine. The biggest surprise is perhaps that both Louis Saha and Darren Fletcher have both been included in the squad.

Both Fletcher and Saha were expected to be out until late April, if not for the rest of the season, so it has come as a welcome surprise that they have been included in the squad. Neville, Vidic, Evra and Silvestre are all still on the injured list. Ji-Sung Park is also out as a result of a knee injury sustained at the weekend against Blackburn.

The return of two first teamers is also welcome, but this shoudl really boost the squad and hopefully spur them on to victory.

Vidic Out For The Season

 

Silvestre, Solksjaer, Neville… It seems that every weekend a Manchester United player picks up another injury. The training ground must be a bit light on players these days. This weekend it was the turn of Nemanja Vidic to sustain an injury that will keep him out for the rest of the season.

Vidic dislocated his shoulder after an awkward fall against Blackburn on Saturday. He is expected to be out for four weeks, but the dislocation required medical attention at a hospital and experts say that it may be approximately six weeks. However, he will be right as rain in time for preseason.

Ahead Of FA Cup Weekend

This has been a big week for Manchester United already considering they have progressed to the quarter final of the Cahmpions League. However, their week is about to get even bigger as they face Middlesborough at the Riverside in an FA Cup quarter final.

The team news is certainly interesting. Solksjaer, Fletcher, Saha and Silvestre are all out with injuries, which has led to Dong Fangzhou (a rookie that I wrote a quick bio about some weeks back) receiving his very first first team call up. It is also Henrik Larsson’s last appearence in a Manchester United shirt before his return to Sweden on the 12th March. Alex ferguson is certainly going to have a tough time choosing a side in the hours before the game.

Watch this space for the result!

Injury Update

                                               

Manchester United may be marching on in persuit of the Champions League, FA Cup and Premiership title, but their squad is looking a little depleated after a bad week on the injuries front. Ole Gunnar Solksjaer has already been declared injured for the forseeable future, but last night’s game against Lille saw another name added to the list. Mikael Silvestre dislocated his shoulder during the game and will be out for three weeks.

Silvestre’s injury is not as bad as was first thought. He was initially believed to have broken his arm, which would have rendered him unable to play for a longer spell. As it is, he will be back for the end of the season run in, by which time Alex Ferguson may well need him fresh and ready to play.
