[Fatlad666]

I think we're going to get annihilated. Absolute state of that bench. Late, enforced formation change due to Anel's injury

Last time I dealt with Anel injury was in Wakefield prison

 

[8lade]

Can't go tonight due to ankle injury, good luck to the lads, lets hope things start improving, UTB

Took a walk past Shirebrook - can't put any weight on that leg for a good 2 weeks.

 

[Pintor75]

Which Blades player are you?!

The next signing!

 

[BalticBlade]

Last time I dealt with Anel injury was in Wakefield prison

Big if true

 

[BalticBlade]

What the fuck up with Anel.
What a fucking joke.

Hamstring

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

 

[Panini]

No way Norwood is that far forward...he'll be sat 5 yards in front of our defence as usual!

Unless we're defending, when he'll somehow manage to be the wrong side

 

[originaltrueblade]

Injury after injury after injury

 

[Bell4]

 

[SB_90]

i dont know what we are trying to play as it seems to be 442 but with 4 central midfielders

the only positive from the man utd team news is how with the 1.8 billion man utd have spent on transfers. their starting a game with Jonny Evans & Harry Maguire at CB

 

[Bell4]

Last time I dealt with Anel injury was in Wakefield prison

Remember it so well

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

One on the bench...we be in twuble

 

[A Storm of Blades]

Must be another training ground injury, beyond a joke now

It was beyond a joke in January. Fuck knows what it is now. Disgraceful

 

[Mattblade68]

One of officials warming up has already shaken hands with a.MUFC player ..

My guess is it's Vini at RCB with Norwood holding... I hope not, but that's my guess.

 

[Pollingtonblade]

That defence reminds me of something we'd have fielded in the Clough era

 

[Kizmet]

My only hope is the new formation gives a performance that we can build on
But its more hope than expectation

 

[Gimli]

The one and Oné makes the bench

 

[Tickhill Blade]

That defence reminds me of something we'd have fielded in the Clough era

You mean no centre halves playing centre half?

 

[Colombia Blade]

This was not the four at the back I was thinking of...

My guess is it's Vini at RCB with Norwood holding... I hope not, but that's my guess.

He did play RCB once for Mechelen and twice at LCB, so this could be right

 

[Dave9777]

Excuses made by Hecky already in pre match interview, referred to ManU as “United”

Gerrim out!

 

[SB_90]

not saying the injury crisis is bad but this is the new CB partnership for the arsenal game next week

 

[Richeee]

Can't go tonight due to ankle injury, good luck to the lads, lets hope things start improving, UTB

Get yer boots on your on the bench injured ankle or not we need cover

 

[Melbourne Blade]

I had no idea Steve McLaren was on the Manchester United coaching staff

 

[HarryHaslam]

Hows he not scored that

 

[drblade]

Even Hecky calls Man Utd, ‘United’

 

[drblade]

Why is Norwood on set piece duty…Hamer please.

 

[jono_t2000]

Immediately evident so many more bodies in midfield

Encouraging!

 

[Thrice]

Bogle so naive. That's exactly what you should not do against ManU, give them counter chances.

 

[Bobby b]

Norwood needs to give Hamer the ball on free kicks,
