Dearly hope that injury is nothing serious. I hate to see players holding their backs, because back injuries can be real feckers.

Everything you could possibly want in a Man Utd midfielder - fearless, attacking and quality passing and movement. Love watching him play!

Tough role he plays but does it to great effect. Love the little flicks that always seem to come off.

He was bloody good today. Looks right at home in the system. Hope the injury is nothing serious. If it is, hopefully Fellaini's back to replace him rather than Fletcher.
As we saw against Swansea in our first game, neither Fletch or Fellaini are adequate replacements for Herrera.

We cannot go into the run of fixture we have with the clubs that finished above us last year without Ander.

He's exactly the kind of midfielder we've been missing for years.

Proper box to box player.

Ofcourse he's gone and got himself injured which is par for the course with us.

Obviously whoever comes in if he is injured will make us a weaker outfit, but we have to find the best compromise. Possibly Carrick anchoring and Blind on the side.

That first half was his best for us, even better than QPR for me. Really tidy player but also knows how to tackle

He really is a cracking player. We have no decent alternative in the squad, so hopefully it's just a knock.

Not comforting that he doesn't seem to know what the problem is with his back. Was hoping for 'just a precaution, I'll be ready week'.

I love this guy! We were really missing a player like him. With him and Di Maria we've basically gone from a crap midfield to one of the best in the league.

Please don't let the back injury be time out of the team unless Carrick is able to step up. Fletcher is not capable of performing in his absence on recent displays.

Thought he was good today. Positive play, great movement and energy were key components of our midfield play, certainly in the first half and a lot of these came directly from him.

I get the feeling that one of these days he's going to get himself sent off. Love his tackles but it's all on the edge

Eh, he's a central midfielder, so that's pretty much nailed on.

He will most probably be undergoing some scan or tests to know the extent of the injury. I don't see any point in him declaring on his own something about it without confirmation from medical team.

Wasn't he completely injury free at Bilbao? Bit worrying that he's already picked up 2 injuries for us.
