Sometimes I think if you scanned these people's heads there'd just be porridge in there.Bloke on sky sports the other day giving it “yeah United have injuries but still, why do they only have 1 left back? You look at other teams and they have cover.”
I think it’s more than thatI think Martinez hasn’t fully recovered from the knock he got on his foot a few weeks ago. He could probably play through the pain in an emergency!
Mainoo, Mount and Amrabat are close to returning!
I really like the look of Amass in the U18’s (left back) maybe he’ll get the call to provide cover?
Hojlund's back just exploded.feck sake. Who next?
Dalot, with either Lindelof or Amrabat at right back?Feck off. So who plays left back now? Lindelöf? Amrabat?
Not Shaw mateWhen is Shaw back?
I expected him the last game but there was no ShawNot Shaw mate
The clubs policy of being more vague with injuries sucks. Malacia might be dead for all we know.
Either the training is haphazard or we've employed a bunch of Dr. Nicks.We’re clearly doing something badly wrong behind the scenes, this is well beyond bad luck.
I think Ten Hag has overplayed some of these players and we are seeing the consequences of it now.We’re clearly doing something badly wrong behind the scenes, this is well beyond bad luck.
Reguilonfeck sake. Who next?
We have decent backups. It's the backups and the starters being injured. And the 3rd choice being injured. That's why its amplified. Nobody can have depth to protect for this. You just struggle through. The cause of these injuries is different, but a lot were to players who haven't been long at United or before they came in.Every injury feels infinitely amplified because we lack reliable backup options.
I also suspect we lack proper recovery/rehabilitation facilities for injured players to build their strength back up. This was alluded to by Ronaldo in his second stint here.
Far from the truth, United have fantastic rehabilitation facilities, so much so Rangnick wanted all players to recover at United saying: As far as I can tell the medical department is really good, very good, with many different approaches towards rehab. I would not want players to do their rehab abroad or anywhere else.Every injury feels infinitely amplified because we lack reliable backup options.

Maybe our left-backs run much more than they should because they don't get as much support as they should get. Both Shaw and Reguilion are down with muscle injuries which generally occur due to muscle overuse.So our emergency left back cover managed all of 2 games before getting injured? What the feck is wrong with us right now!?
Don't think that's just down to Rashford to be honest. Without Amrabat we've not had the midfield defensive cover for our wingback who we like to have push forward. Hopefully Amrabat can stay fit and make us a bit more balanced.Maybe our left-backs run much more than they should because they don't get as much support as they should get.

It's a stretch maybe but Rashford is way too lazy.
Didn’t realise he’d been shipped off on loan!Isn’t he at Granada?
You'll get shorter odds winning the Euromillions super jackpot tonight!Odds on Varane staying fit for 2 months?
We're definitely not the best equipped to deal with injuries, and something needs addressing, but look at pretty much every EPL club right now. There are seemingly injury crises developing everywhere. Last season was a killer and it's catching up.At this point it's hard not to feel like there's something wrong at your club. Too many injuries, and while this period is one of the worst you had, you've constantly had a number of players injured over the past few years.
I think the club should conduct some kind of overall review, from the training facilities to the medical staff and procedures. Even if it's just bad luck and the club is running smoothly, it'd be wise to make sure of it.
You guys talk about Varane being injury-prone and it's true, he has totally become injury-prone but he wasnt before going to Manchester. All of your major players have gone through some kind of serious injury over the past few years, with Bruno being the exception, he's an iron man.
Varane has been injury-prone before coming to United just to add some facts to our comment. If you look through the injuries, they're down to bad luck or injury-prone players, and we can't forget about horror tackles. Sometimes players play through the pain which can make things worse, and sometimes players don't play through the pain when they probably could. Suarez played against Norwich with a twisted ankle, he wore a size bigger boot on one foot and scored a hattrick. Painkillers.At this point it's hard not to feel like there's something wrong at your club.

The more you play, the more you're likely to get injured, it's what Varane was complaining about.We're definitely not the best equipped to deal with injuries, and something needs addressing, but look at pretty much every EPL club right now.

The post above is noting that we're not that far above other clubs now. But that's after we've had injuries to Mount, Amrabat, Hojlund, Varane, Martinez, Maguire, Lindelof and Martial already this season, which is the context for people's complaints.I mean someone just posted above that the club's injuries aren't that far above other clubs. But yes cursed, voodoo, players being looked after in dilapidated huts by three toddlers in a trench coat stacked on top of each other.
