We really need this guy to be fit. He has become my favourite United player and my pick for our future captain
Him being out worries me more than anyone else in the team...

Usually when they do that it means at least a few weeks.
Why would some website have any idea regarding injuries at all clubs? All they know is what's being reported and what the club says. And there's nothing about Herrera.
The problem is that none of the other options in the first team squad has the legs to properly slot into the role Herrera (and Di Maria for that matter) is currently playing in. It requires a dynamic player who has the capability of moving around a lot, not just up and down the pitch, but also out wide to create space in the middle as well as support the full back.
Especially the last part is absolutely pivotal for the current system. Swapping Herrera for another, less mobile midfielder, will mean that the middle becomes more congested and the full back is more isolated. Of course, it might also make us more compact, so I could possibly see us going for an option like that against the top teams, but our attacking play will suffer.
Officially worried now.
I'm not. He has until Sunday to recover, if he had really done something terrible to his back he wouldn't have walked off so comfortably.
Plus after the Everton game there is a small break. Let's hope he's back as he's absolutely crucial to our midfield
Wonder if he'll get called up into the Spain squad? He's started the season well.
Meh it's Jaime Jackson... Any other more reliable journo reporting this?
the luck we have for a while I wouldn't be surprised if he is out for 2 years like Gündogan. Would just be what you expect after Moyes and being pranked by cnut Cakir and Clattenburg recently.
Manchester United and a proper midfield is just not ment to be

Even if it's not a serious problem LVG is unlikely to start him v Everton as he is so cautious about injuries/fitness
FFS
What does the tweet say?
FFS! We never seem to catch a break with injuries
feck off. How long is that our for then, a month? We play Chelsea 1 month from now, we really need him back for that.
terrific
Just fantastic. There goes our midfield.
For feck's sake!
WEEKS?What was his injury record at Bilbao? That's his second injury in 6 games.
We've got no luck.
It just gets worse and worse.

feck sake.
Spotless record there I think. Genuinely don't remember him being injured at all for Athletic Club.
So he'll miss Everton and Chelsea, and maybe even City. Smashing stuff.
Pretty sure he hardly ever got injured. A rib injury is just one of those things you can't account for or predict though.
Hopefully he's not out for too long.
I will take a fractured rib over an injured back any day of the week. These heal quick and with no long lasting results.
Id prefer option C. No injury at all
Huh? Ribs are like 2 weeks max as long as he is getting the proper resting.
well, i guess that's the one good thing about only having 3 ######## matches between now and november.
feck off
He will play vs chelsea.
I fractured rib is annoying but you can play through it and i am speaking from experience.

I think we all would, but people were worried about it being his back when he fell. My point is you have only TWO options, which do you prefer?
Oh brilliant.
Well thats us f*cked for the Everton game.

If we are just monitoring it there's a chance he could play vs Everton??
Thank goodness for another seemingly pointless international break.
