Just bad luck? This bad luck does not happen to teams on the up.If only managers could get injured.
It's not though, that's the problem, we have a giant injury crisis almost every season. Even under Fergie I remember we had to start Fletcher and Carrick at CB for a few games because we were so injury ravaged. The only reason Van Gaal played so many kids was because he was forced to because of all of our injuries. We are consistently on top of the injury lists every single season. This is far from unprecedented, we've had it worse before.Not surprised at wantaway Pogba not being fit. De Gea situation unfortunate.
But this injury problem at United right now is unprecedented and speaks to the desire within this squad.
Only with poorly performing teams is "desire" being questioned during injuries.Just bad luck? This bad luck does not happen to teams on the up.
This is some crazy logic. If you break your leg, are you lacking in passion if you don't show up for manual work?Not surprised at wantaway Pogba not being fit. De Gea situation unfortunate.

Is it? I'm sure there were numerous spells when LvG was the boss where we had 8/9 players missing, at one time we had 13/14 missing.Not surprised at wantaway Pogba not being fit. De Gea situation unfortunate.

Is this the first time you've watched us in two decades or something? Under Fergie we had annual defensive injury crises and was even worse under van Gaal.Not surprised at wantaway Pogba not being fit. De Gea situation unfortunate.

Why? We've got Ole of the United way on the wheel.If I was them I'd probably want to be "injured" for this game, too.

So right.Ok, there missing, Romero, is still a top keeper, should have no worries with him in Goal. Pogba is still out, ok, he seems not at it anyway, so is he a big miss!
Martial back hopefully, Rashford looked on if for England let's hope he's on it on Sunday, AWB looks like he's fit as well, so it's not that bad. We still got a mediocre squad with 1 or 2 who could turn it on..
It's a bigger game for them than us, if we come out of it with anything is a plus. Bookies not giving us a hope, and were at Home!
The way we play is effective vs top 6 than vs rest of them.I mean, let's be real here, with the way we are currently playing them being out won't make any difference. We even lost against Palace at home with both of them on the field.
Team loses game shocker.I mean, let's be real here, with the way we are currently playing them being out won't make any difference. We even lost against Palace at home with both of them on the field.
We have injury problems every year. We just have an injury prone squad. You can put De Gea down as shit happens, but Martial regularly gets muscle injuries, Pogba regularly picks up knocks, our defenders have been injury prone for ages, lingard always gets niggling injuries... Rashford to his credit is one of the few who manages to stay fit. In fact the only reliable players fitness wise in our squad are:Not surprised at wantaway Pogba not being fit.

We were dreadful against Arsenal and what's even funnier is that they were worse.The way we play is effective vs top 6 than vs rest of them.
Pogba constantly kept giving away the ball that game and De Gea should have saved the winning goal from Palace. My point stands, yes injuries are having a bad impact but quite frankly with the way we are playing even with everyone fully fit I can't see much of a difference being made. The confidence is at an all time low and when you look at the players body language none of them even wants to be on the field. With or without Pogba and DDG we are going to get embarrassed against Liverpool.Team loses game shocker.
Top 6 records since Ole took over has been good. Way better than when we play against poor teams. Us having Pogba and DDG would definitely be useful in this case than against likes of Sheffield Utd or Crystal palace. That's what i was getting at.We were dreadful against Arsenal and what's even funnier is that they were worse.
None of our lot are real United players, sadly, as has now been proven over successive seasons (Maguire/James/AWB aside).What.
This is against Liverpool our biggest rivals. This is a game to become a hero(s).
All the pressure is on them.
We will find out who are the real United players.
No surprised at Pogba not being fit given that Ole kept playing him hurt, including 90 minutes against Rochdale.Not surprised at wantaway Pogba not being fit. De Gea situation unfortunate.
