Glad it sounds like he's ok. It looks awful seeing him lying there motionless.

He'd have scored from that Mata cross which Rashers headed towards the sideline, wouldn't he?

Like he scored from the Mata cross right on his head in the first 5 mins right?? Think the rashford one was just a bit out of reach for him so can't blame him too much
 
Hopefully he's back soon, else we're likely to see just how inferior Rashford/Martial are to him as centre forwards.
 
I just hope he's not out for a long time. Without him we don't have a proper striker at all.
 
Read there's a 6 day rule for head injuries, meaning he's automatically out of Monday now.

Is Ibra anywhere near starting after not being on the bench? Or does Rashford get another go>
 
We are toothless without him up front. He is our best 9 in our club currently no doubt & no debate about that anymore.
 
Defo out of the next match, but I'm not that bothered as I've been calling for him to be dropped for a few weeks.

Hopefully this mini collapse will see the board see sense and buy in January.
 
You would think he’ll be out for a few weeks with that. Did look really bad when he wasn’t moving at all. You would think even with a concussion he would be able to walk off the field so must have been really bad.
 
If he is down this is a blow, it looked bad. Almost an eerie cold reaction in here, this is huge for us if he misses anywhere more than a few weeks. Hope he's okay.. :nervous:

I like how you decided that after 60 minutes of football. Despite us looking equally toothless with him in the team too.

This is our first 0-0 premier league results bar Liverpool . Happens when he wasn't on the field
I have a point.
Even though he didn't play well , his presence alone disturb defender & create space for other.
You see how easy soton defender dealing with rashford , beating every air ball coming to him

Jomo said Zlatan is out for a month, so i guess Rashford needs to step up.
(No idea if you found out by checking the Zlatan thread)

Don't be offended here please, but in usa sport is based on entertainment. In europe it is something more.

I lived in Europe for two and half years. I been to different games. I know some intense fans. A guy could have had a life changing injury. Twisting into a positive for the team is sick. That's not a cultural thing, that's morality thing.

Oh sorry, you are talking about that injury. Didn't catch that. My bad
 
Glad that he is well from a health perspective but can't say I wouldn' have minded Martial playing up top instead of him for a long period
 
Good to hear it was nothing serious. Hopefully he comes back sharper and fitter.
 
He's a goalscorer and I do think that his form has suffered due to very low confidence. He needs to do a lot better but I wouldn't rule him out just yet. In this current set up with Pogba LCM and being given the freedom to go forward, Lukaku will have some much needed support up front.
