Manure's injuries

[BigChief]

Evra out for 3 weeks, Rio out unknown and now Rooney torn hamstring, out minimum of 3 weeks. Some say 6. Tevez and Johnny Evans also 'limping' apparently. Ronaldo's head still in Madrid and Tevez's contract status in the air.

The only hope I have of winning the league is if the opponents keep imploding. Let's hope the next game against Bolton is a draw, or better for us.

Aye, many twists and turns to come yet before this Title is done and dusted.

[Joe King]

If we can't win this title against a side which is half crocked by the sound of things, we truly do have the mentality of a cup team.

[BigChief]

Joe, agreed.

I remember reading somewhere that Rafa's Valencia, although a brilliant outfit, only won two La Ligas because Real Madrid and Barcelona were going through transitional phases at the same time. Let's hope some of that luck adds a Premiership title to his name.

(pray, pray)

I think the 2nd title they won..they lost a couple and went a few points adrift, really dug in and won a few and Madrid lost 5 in a row and basically imploded from a great position. The first I'm not entirely sure.

Anyway, great news. They should hopefully struggle

Chelsea are going through that now and United on paper are at their strongest in comparison to the last three seasons. Evidently, United are our title challengers. Do I think we have the balls? Nope. The results are clear proof of this. I would loved to be proved wrong. Loved to be proved wrong.

[BigChief]

Yes, please clean this thread up. We're discussing our only title rival's serious-ish injury problems. Long may that continue.

Is it Bolton away next? or at Home?

Is it Bolton away next? or at Home?

Away..5 games in 18 days or so

Thats one in nearly every three days. That includes FA Cup, am I right?

I was thinking that after the Derby game. They had too many games, each one now a must win. Which means putting your first XI at risk all the time. Just need Berbatov and Vidic to under now.

More Vidic. We must capitalise against Everton. Every game is a must win.

Aye, many twists and turns to come yet before this Title is done and dusted.

Defo not done yet Manure fans should remember that.
