    Let's give him a run-out at centre half first before jumping to conclusions

    The injuries seem to have got worse rather than better. Put that together with our hugely unbalanced

    squad and we have an issue.

    Is there more to it or is it simply a case that we are no different to other

    teams whom we don't focus on as closely? As well as our other main compeitors having more in depth squads perhaps?

    No. Apparently we've sustained 15% more injuries than any other PL club over the last ten years

    According to some journo in the Telegraph yesterday

    Probably worse compared to non CL clubs. But the extra games and small/unbalanced squad don't help.

    United are in a piss poor state defensively as well.

    I suppose you'd have to ask whether we're good enough regardless of injuries, in the first place.

    If you think we're not then injuries is a fortunate excuse. If we were winning the league, nobody would care about them really.

    We were winning the league when Eduardo got injured, weren't we? Cry

    No, we were on top.

    Quite different to actually winning the thing.

    Numerically the depth at other top clubs is only greater in probably one position, centre half.
