"The club continues to suffer from injuries. Defender Mikael Silvestre became the third injured footballer in just a few days. The French defender was unsuccessful in the Champions League match against Lille at the end of the game and dislocated his shoulder. Earlier in the month, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Louis Saha dropped out of the squad due to injuries, while Darren Fletcher, who injured his ankle, is likely to be out for the season. "Despite the results, this week has been very bad. At first, we thought Mikael had broken his arm at the site of the injury, but it turned out that his shoulder had popped out. However, this is another big blow for us," - said "Man Utd" coach Sir Alex Ferguson. It is not yet clear how long the Frenchman will recover and whether he will return to the field this season. It is worth noting that M. Silvestre is already the third loss for the French national team (after T. Henry and L. Saha) before the European Championship qualifiers. With injuries piling up and only two real strikers left for the "Red Devils," coach A. Ferguson emphasized that he will try to convince Henrik Larsson to stay in the team until the end of the season, whose contract ends on March 12th."
