Not so much when you consider Mike, Jones and Rojo's injuries tend to have been sustained in full-blooded challenges
Rojo yes, wasn't meaning him, but Mike and Phil I'm not so sure. Jones seems to be able to get injured standing still and Smalling has a patchy record too - even so it doesn't matter how they are getting injured, it's just happening too often to be just bad luck. They aren't much use to us not fit, and even JM seems to think they could be pushing themselves more (and the people around them).bstb3 said:

Ok, maybe you're right about Jones. Hardly ever been fit and never been first choice. A waste of a squad number. Smalling was great last season though. If he could regain that form I'll let him stay E63M6 said:
There's not one striker in the world who wouldn't have gone down in that scenario. Not good to see but that's how it is.
If this result stays the same you know it will be cheating man utd all over, but you are right. It's hardly like we have exclusivity on this - and when you consider the amount of penalties and bad decisions that have gone against us, one going our way doesn't hurt. It's not right of Marcus to do it, and hopefully it's not something we see a lot, but blaming him for something that is endemic in the game is missing the point.Video tech can't come soon enough.
story of the season. simply not good enough in games when it really has mattered. We can blame Rooney, his stupid error for their goal and also missing our best chance, but really thats not it. We just weren't at the races today - the injuries and number of games are making themselves felt, and the players coming in just aren't good enough any more.
Focus on EL now, because league isn't happening unless Pool totally feck it up in their 4 games remaining and they really should be fresh enough not to having barely played of late.
