I don't doubt lots of clubs match us on overall injuries but it feels like more than any other club we manage to feck up recovery after games and returns from injury, and turn minor injuries into long drawn out absences.

Can hardly count Amrabat and Hojlund, they were injured when we bought them

I think it's an accumulation of playing an absurd amount of football last season, a dog shit American pre-season on awful pitches, and general poor fitness that has seen this awful start.
We played 62 matches last season. Teams like Arsenal and Liverpool played 49 and 52 respectively. Man City won a fecking treble and still played fewer than us.

Have we employed "in a carry-on-style" a really attractive nurse/physio?
Less than United having another cup game at home.
fixed.
So what the feck is happening?
For some reason i thought it was a confirmed knee injury? I might have just confused something and made that up though.
Also we’re playing extra injury time this year which doesn’t help.
Can none of the academy/yth CBs play RB?
Can no-one on here fill in?
What!? I had no idea Martinez’ injury was so serious. We’re fecked this season aren’t we? Playing out from the back will be a lot harder
My Ma says she’s available to play if we’re desperate.
Only joking she’s in her 70’s!
Sorted if we need a camera or TV then.
We should call him back from loan then. There is nothing for him to learn in that league, especially not with relegation fodder like Granada.
They can barely play CB, our best was Fish.
Depends on the agreement, often you can’t recall them. I’d assume the club aren’t that inept they have forgotten they have an LB on loan.
And on to an apocalypse.
Yea but we can't put our sole faith on him. I could see him floundering at RB. I don't think it's the best plaice to play him.
So injured are:
Martinez
Amad
AWB
Shaw
Mainoo
Malacia
Criminal issues (yes we now need a new criminal list)
Antony
Jackass issues (also yes)
Sancho
Back
Mount
Varane

Defence is the area that's really killing us, the other ones you can kind of get away with although we often look a bit more balanced with Antony in the team. Need those defenders back soon....and where the heck is Malacia and why is there no updates on him?
that sounds suspiciously like High Tower from police Academy 4 in the back of the van with those newbies...

Yup thats where I got it from
. I was watching police academy 4 a few days agoYup thats where I got it from
same here. I read it and thought..aha!! hightower..i've been expecting youuuu..Fecked if I know, but I'd imagine what EtH says has a big element of truth to it.
Increased matches, increased intensity in said matches, increased intensity in training etc
United certainly are not the only team with a long injury list.
Martial fit as a fiddle. Wonders never cease.
Even a crock is healthy twice a millennium
While he's still on two good legs, we should see if he can play LB
Don't you have to run up and down the wing for that?
Was it during Van Gaal's tenure that the training facility had artificial turf put in? And then they figured out that all the muscle injuries were from playing on artificial pitches? Am I remembering this correctly? There was our annual injury crisis, but then there were a lot more on top of the standard crisis. I wonder if something similar is happening, especially as these appear to be muscle strains. From personal experience, playing on artificial pitches feels like taking a hammer to my joints the next day, whereas on grass the force from cutting is dispersed a lot better and I'm even half as sore.
I mean, ideally, but we're closing in on the 'any port in a storm' phase of squad availability, here.
If Dalot goes down this weekend we're gonna be in a bit of a state.
One of those seasons we can't buy a break from injuries. Worst of the lot it the left full back situation with both 1st.2nd choice out for extended period, a lad loaned in to fill in and he gets injured also.
As for Martinez was his injury from last season even sorted out right, probably brought back soon.

Think McT will end up getting a run of games at RB
It can't be a coincidence both United and Chelsea have such long injury lists. Something is rotten with both clubs.
Reguilon and Heaton out as well.
