[Messigician]

Out for 2 months

 

[Masetro10]

How can a sprained ankle results in ONE month out?

High ankle sprains heal really slowly and can be aggravated easily.

 

[Andresito]

Clasico will be tough without him.

 

[mc_lovin]

Not a fan of playing CBs at DM, but maybe now is the time to try it.

 

[jamrock]

We'll miss him in the clasico because I think Xavi agrees with my XI for elite games, with de jong as DM with gavi/gundogan beside him.

Now it will have to be oriol.

 

[Messigician]

Out for 8 weeks

 

[Horatio]

Out for 8 weeks

Now do in days.

 

[Messi983]

Out for 56 days.

 

[JamDav1982]

Gone from Romeu will be important and got the DM as folk wanted to FDJ will play DM v better teams.

Some us told you from start that despite it not being FDJ peak position he is far better DM than Romeu who isnt good enough.

 

[kattanib]

Out for 1344 hours

 

[jamrock]

Out of 80,640 minutes.

48,384 minutes of ball in play time.

 

[Temptation]

Out until United's next W in the league.

 

[Neeraj]

We have a pretty big fdj problem. There is not a player in the squad that can come close to filling that role and when he's out our entire team looks poor because Xavi hasn't shown the tactical nous for a clear and consistent progressive attack.

Frenkies transitions and runs from defence + line splitting passes are the life of our attacking play. Remove that and it's back to pass ball to wings and hope for some magic.

Gundogan is great further upfront but we need someone who splits lines. Pedri is very cautious and doesn't have the mobility to play there. Not going to talk about Romeu he is usless.

 

[JamDav1982]

Gundogan is the one surely that will have to play deeper.

Cancelo and Gavi was pure chaos in middle as a two.

 

[wisconsincule]

Massive buzz kill that he got hurt. Clearly our best player
