Mancini speaks.....injury updates.

[Halfpenny]

We need SWP back for this game, get the feeling he's gonna be key.

Got to agree on the Boyata opinion. Surely if Richards is fit it will be Zaba, Richards, Kompany and Sylvinho??

I'd hope for that but not bloody Sylvenho. Garrido left back for me.

Is It me or does Richards always get injured in every game? His pain tolerance Is sh*te for a big lad.

Everytime he goes off injured and returns 4 the next game. I would love to have the stats to hand to confirm this

Must admit I have often thought the same. Interesting to see if Micah or Boyata starts at CB.

Pretty sure i read he has a long term problem with his knee or something, it doesn't stop him playing but can be aggravated.

Also when you're compensating for an injury, that can lead to picking up other niggles.

I so hope SWP is fit for this match we will need him to go box to box against Evra like he did against Cole.The thought of either Robbie or Petrov playing on the right is a scary one.Neither would get past him once and he'd have a free run forward at will.

If Sweep doesn't make it we must play Bellamy on the right, I know it's not preferred but Evra is one of United's best players.

Yeah I agree mate if SWP doesn't make it we might have to do that.Would be a pity though because I'd love to see Bellers start upfront with Tevez in this match.The two of them would not give their defence any time on the ball and Bellamy's pace down the middle would terrify the likes of Vidic and Evans.

I think Boro was a bit chilly for him.

If SWP does start the rags will only do what they always do, kick him off the park.

where Mancini tells us that he doesn't know very much about "Scunfoss" when asked about the FA cup 4th round draw....

 

[robinho ho ho]

whats up with picking the new lad boyota - I was at boro and he had a great first game considering being thrown in at the deep end.
I would certainly prefer him at centre back to richards....
