its bad bad news but is it the end of our title hopes? not a chance jos did a solid job while he was out suspended so i cant see why he wont be able to continue that form tbh i think it would be more of a loss if we lost vida but evra is one of our most important players and the best left back in the world but i dont think it will affect our title hopesred dave said:Breaking news Patrice Evra is out of action for the next 3 weeks with a foot injury.
Do we think this will affect our title hope's ?
that would be something but i realy don't think so. Giggs will remain a center midfield and will sometimes bring him back on as a left winger. I don't think Giggsy is the man for that spot. O shea will get the start and as i said, maybe young fabio will make an official debut .moondog said:It's not the toughest part of our schedule. It's a bad break, but we will persevere without him.
We have O'Shea and, dare I say it.............Giggsy! Given his performance Sunday, I really wouldn't be surprised at all if Fergie tries to start GIGGS at LB in one or two of these games.
ya it could have been alot worse as you say its not our toughest run of matches and i have confidince in o shea after how well hes filled in for evra when neededmoondog said:It's not the toughest part of our schedule. It's a bad break, but we will persevere without him.

Yeah, I guess I should put some context around my comment. Giggs could be an adequate emergency replacement at LB. Offensively, he's obviously got the skills. He has always been responsible defensively and he's got enough pace to play the position. And he has played wing for most of his career, so he understands what works to defend them.red dave said:...As for the Ryan Giggs at left back what a few have metioned he only filled in there when we were trying to force a goal in the last 20 minutes....

I'm not suggesting a new career for Giggsy, but in a pinch....
we still need evra in every game he is the only player at the moment giving united crosses. we scored all three from crosses against chelsea and you can see why lower teams are stopping us from getting in crosses and evra bombing down the wing helped us against chelsea. its going to be quite down the wings if ronaldo doesnt produce something.Nemanjaaa said:Oh come on, he's been out for the last 5 games makes one appearance and is injured again, especially in the next 3 weeks we have a heck of alot of games coming up. Luckily we don't have any of the big 4 or an CL games in the next 3/4 weeks.
