How would your side cope with injuries

If Rio and Neville are out then defence would be f*cked. We need at least one commanding defender to run the defence.Vidic is solid but he won't be able to communicate with the the rest of the defence well enough. Hopefully Hargreaves can be the missing link, in that if the Rio and Neville are out, he can be have the commanding presence in front of the the back four and guide them. Plus VDS was dodgy at end of last season so having someone there being the rock is a must.I think the rest of the squad is fine as we have sufficient cover, just a matter of them being able to learn to play with one another, which will come as the season goes on.
I Agree, that showed against milan.Also you cant tell how well nani and anderson will do, there both young and have no prem experience and wont be near ronaldos level, tho if ron gets injuryed they can be nearly as good with a few changes.

I don't think Neville gets as much credit as he should. He might not be the best defender in the World or have anything too special about him but without his presence and experience it makes a big difference. He has the heart & desire to succeed and he's passionate about the club.But still Rio is more important in defence cos his still got at least 4 years ahead of him, he holds the CB position - in the heart of defence and he now knows his got to be the backbone otherwise the teams f*cked.

Uniteds defence is fine the reason why it affected us last season was because we had so many injuries you cant compensate or plan ahead for that kinda thing midfield is fine upfront if rossi gets sold we defo need another goal keepers untill january i'll be worried if van der sar gets injured hopefully Foster's ready then we will only miss Ronaldo depending on how nani and Anderson settle eagles would be good enough to play against the lesser teams as well same with Lee Martin if he's ever given a chance

How long was Rio, Evra & Vidic out for? & who did you have to play against in that time? I remember you playing against AC Milan, but can't remember the other teams.

yeah gerrard holds liverpool back and benitez knows this.
You dun knowYou seem to be the only person in the world that agrees to thisAlonso is playing shitter because of him and Pennant is playing more restricted and Crouch is holding up the ball longer and Kuyt is running around like a headless chickenI have said this all summer sell Gerrard to someone and buy Maxi Rodriguez will be able to score around 10+ from the wing while Alonso will score more so would Crouch and Kuyt and maybe even PennantStupid Houllier if Gerrard wasn't the skipper I think Rafa would have flogged him a few seasons ago and bought in players that he rates
