Manchester United look to have suffered yet more injury misery with both Marcus Rashford and Andre Onana forced off on international duty.

Rashford came off worse after clashing with Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold during England’s 2-0 Euro 2024 qualifying win at home to Malta. He received medical attention on the pitch at Wembley before being replaced by Cole Palmer on the hour mark

Onana started in goal for Cameroon’s World Cup qualifying match against Mauritius. The Reds shot-stopper lasted 81 minutes but was also forced off with an injury, the nature of which is not known

      2020 corona made matches crazy tight, 2021 got affected aswell from this, that season led in to the idiotic winter world cup so 2022 season got stretched aswell, the queen died and added 2 weeks of mourning to the schedule making the games even tighter.

      I remember reading last year about how Bruno had played a game on average every 4th day for 50 games. That is just not sustainable in the long run for any club. And now we are paying the price.
