    Post intl break injury update.


    Hoping against hope that Jones will be ready and set for a move in January...

    If this is true, this is not a good look at all. As mentioned elsewhere, it's not like Ole has to start Rashford because of lack of options. Rashford has been poor as it is in recent games and now more than ever because of that shoulder injury, he needs to be sidelined so he can rest and heal up completely.

    Not the news we want to hear but at least, Ole is not taking chances this time. Can only hope it's not the same ankle that gave him problems last season.

    It probably felt like it would rather be playing in Spain.

    Not a good time for an injury crisis to potentially pop up with an extremely busy December on deck and we better hope that Ole will be judicious will the players on the bubble right now nursing knocks (Rash, Lindelof and AWB).
    As far as Pogs is concerned, it's not the same ankle that troubled him last season apparently. Not a recurring injury at least but we saw how bad it can get if that kind of injury is not dealt with correctly either.

    Latest injury updates. There are a couple of worries ahead of the PSG game later this week.

    Manchester United give injury update on seven players ahead of Paris Saint-Germain fixture - Manchester Evening News

    Will be good to have Pogs and McTominay return, even if the PSG will probably be too soon for either one of them. Fingers crossed, Telles can shake off what's bothering him.
    Timely return for Lingard as well: hopefully he can come into some form and provide some much needed depth. We'll sure need it in the coming weeks...

    Both Cavani and Martial were injury subs according to Ole - which is a concern ahead of RBL and City games given both play #9.

    That is not good considering neither have been seen in an actual game as of late. Not surprising coming from Bailly unfortunately at this point. But Tuanzebe now also appears to be one of those players, like Bailly and Jones, who can't remain fit for long.
    Bringing in a CB in January has to be a priority. We keep pushing Lindelof and Maguire in this fashion and sooner or later they'll break and we'll be in deep trouble. Get that Mengi is an option, but having him play and perform consistently in the first team is a tall ask at this time.

    Tuanzebe has posted pictures of him in training today with the rest of the guys. Hopefully, he can be ready for Everton (Vic and Maguire need a break).

    Victor Lindelof injured during Leicester v Man Utd - Boxing Day 2020 | Manchester United

    Will have to see what comes up after further testing, but this is precisely what was feared. Something was bound to give at some point.
    Whether it's something serious or not, it surely stands to reason that Vic will need some time off. We should be fine short term, with the timely return of Bailly and Tuanzebe but conversely, this is still a major potential issue longer term, should anyone else go down.

    Even if somehow he were able to play, he probably shouldn't anyway... Needs the rest, one way or another.

    Facundo has contracted Covid according to his agent. Shame since he apparently was slated to be in the squad for the game vs Watford.

    We'll see what Ole has to say about that. The worry obviously is who else might have caught it, particularly since he's been training with the first team for a few days now.

    Will surely still be going for a scan but this appears to be positive from Bailly.

    Ole says Rashford will have a knee scan tomorrow to see if there's any damage after he felt something during the game against Pool today.

    Not good. If the medical staff are worried enough to get a scan, then that's typically not good. If we lose Rashford for any serious period of time, our title challenge is probably over.
