INJURIES GALORE AS UNITED TEST ANOTHER NEWCOMER---BURNLEY VS MAN UNITED PREVIEW!


As if losing Cristiano Ronaldo is not bad enough, Manchester United are having a plague of injuries that is threatening to undo what should be a very good start to the season.
From Gary Neville to Van Der Sar, Rio Ferdinand to Nemanja Vidic, Jonny Evans to Rafael da Siva, Nani, etc. I mean it's getting ridiculous. They say you must have cover for your first team players but what does one do when 'cover' also gets injured?

One thing is for certain, in tomorrow's game against Burnley, we cannot afford to get more players injured. It's sad that instead of talking about our team's display, all of us are calculating who we need most fit.
Anyhow, it's the second game of the league season and by all means a must win one--given what lies ahead.
So what fans will expect from United tomorrow is goals. The opposition is by no means difficult so we hope to see the free flowing football that we saw many a time in pre-season so that more confidence is restored that we can score as many without Ronaldo.
I hope to see the midfielders step up a little bit and score more.
As far as team selection goes, Ritchie Delaet could finally get his chance to 're-impress' and I think Brown will start alongside O'Shea at the back.
Carrick should return alongside Giggs or Anderson. Fergie reckons that Burnley will provide a red-hot atmosphere that will require experience on our part to get through.
Here's to a win!
