The Mail are reporting that Alexis Sanchez injured himself after colliding with a linesman, whilst warming up against PSG and is now a doubt for the FA Cup match vs. Chelsea.

Not sure how that's funny tbh. I can see he's not making any impact as a player really at present but really is it hilarious ?

Back to upcoming games though we are gonna struggle if martial and lingard are out for all the big games. We don't seem to have any thrust with Rash on his own and can lukaku step straight in and pull his weight..

At this point I'm not sure what to believe around Sanchez anymore. If he did genuinely injure himself in the warm up then why on earth would he play if it's serious enough to keep him out of the next game? Bizarre, but then it's the Mail so quite possibly garbage. If he doesn't play against Chelsea I am not sure it's a massive loss given his lost performance against PSG amyway. Just play Rash, Lukaku and one of Chong or Gomez, or a 3-5-2.

Ok, not hilarious perhaps but definitely amusing that he can’t even manage to warm up properly. He’s been a completely disastrous signing.

Jesus, that would be some performance - he looks like he weighs a ton!
I agree, these injuries to Martial and Jesse are going to hurt us during this period of tough games.

Back down to earth with a bump!

Devasting injuries on Tuesday but never mind, a cracking atmosphere at old Trafford. Very much doubt we have a chance in the away leg but who knows, it’s football!

I’m still firmly in the Ole camp. By the end of the season he’ll have 6 months knowledge of the squad and youth to come through. I really like that he understands the character needed to be a united player, bodes well if he has gets the job.

Oh and fk you Di Maria. United fans very very rarely boo returning players. You can fk tightnof along with Paul Ince.

He’s a fairly unpleasant little twit, but the abuse was way over the top. We shouldn’t pretend that’s acceptable.

as was the supporter who threw a bottle of beer

I don't like the player but some of the idiots there probably made him feel happier about being a massive tt, and he got the last, considerable laugh


sorry - spot on ORD who got in before me

Remind me kindly why the boos in direction of Di Maria are notably vociferous?

he didn’t play with any spirit in a Man United shirt but the other night it didn’t kick off with the fans until Di Maria started goading them.

He also whined constantly about being burgled. Pay for decent security you daft tt.

Throwing a bottle on the pitch is bang out of order. Amazed that it got into the stands to be fair the stewards are normally pretty sharp when it comes to,fans taking beer up from the concourse.

Whined about being burgled? What a baby. Just like anyone that gets burgled you've just got to man up and get on with it - move to that area of the country and you should count yourself lucky you don't get shot at the same time.

Lingard and Martial out for 2-3 weeks...

Will be a chance for some of the kids to step up (so says Ole)

Typical bad luck that key injuries will affect the big games coming up this month and right when we were playing a fairly settled team layout :-(
Not confident in Sanchez and lukaku coming In, both very short of confidence and touch at present.

It’s entirely possible that they will continue to be rubbish but there’s always the chance that at least one may find some form with a little run in the team under the new manager. It’s not ideal that we have to try it but just the way it is.
Fingers crossed!

Let's hope so, although each of them has had more than enough time to play into form, to be honest.

Happened to be outside Newport County's training ground this morning (15yr old daughter was having a driving lesson in the car park), wished them good luck in their match today from Utd fans. hehe
