FFS I hope he is not out for a month, this is bad news.
Rooney - Van Persie
Kagawa
Nani - Carrick - Cleverley - Valencia
Evra - Vidic - Rafael
De Gea
On a serious note though I fecking hope Rio is available. Having 4 CBs injured for the first game of the season would be simply ridiculous.
You know injured doesn't mean dead, right?Has he tweeted today?
if he was injured he wouldnt tweet about it anywayHas he tweeted today?
disaster if Ferdinand isn't fit
If Evams doesnt make it I would consider playing Scott Wootton there - he has looked decent when he played there in preseason
It seems, apart from Evra, all of our defenders are injury prone..

And from reading the caf I've learned he can't defend.
We'd lose 6-1 with that line-up.
thorpe has looked good but wootton is a bit further on in his developmentYeah I think at some point we should give one of the young players a chance in one of these situations. That Thorpe, looks good to. Though everton are one of the worst we could have to lack experienced defenders and defensive strength in the middle. If rio is out we'll have to play our cards right on fellani's fitness who may be a doubt. If he is fit we'll have to put carrick there as he can cause way to many problems and we can't even get away with evra moving inside which he has done before.

One good thing is that Carrick has some experience of playing as a CB.
How far off is Evans from playing? If he is not too far off then is it worth a gamble playing him?
We know Everton like to play the long ball and will take every opportunity to expose our weaknesses.
One good thing is that Carrick has some experience of playing as a CB.
Bad thing though is we have no cover for Carrick in midfield.
Rumour has it that Ferdinand trained fully yesterday!!!
Storm in a teacup if you ask me
Did he?Evans has been training for at least four days now. Could be a classic Fergie moment and he's fit anyway!
Also, Rio tweeted yesterday: "Soccer Saturday is such a good watch on a lazy day after training!"
Make of that what you will.
We can always draft in Blackmore....heard he is still playing!
Isn't it possible he picked up the injury after/during training yesterday?
EDIT: Guess not based on the post above. How random a journo must you be to make up an injury story out of thin air though. Guess we'll find out tomorrow.
ha ha, if aliens were to read the caf over the past 16 months, they'd think Evra is worst footballer on the planet.
