Sir Alex must have been utterly frustrated at the injury sustained by his new signing from Tottenham -Michael Carrick.
Carrick lasted just a mere 14 minutes in the game against Ajax after a being on the wrong end of a tackle by hosts’ skipper Kenneth Perez.
It is ligament damage to the ankle,” said Ferguson.
“It is difficult to say what will happen with these things because we don’t know what his general recovery time is but it will be three weeks at least.
“It is a blow for the young lad because he has only just joined us and he wanted to do well. It knocks him back a bit but it’s something we have to handle as we have done many times in the past.”
United fans will be fretting as they already have Gary Neville,Vidic,Heinze and Rio Ferdinand on the croc list, and now with the addition of Carrick on it and the appreant lack of fitness of Ronaldo,Silvestre and Saha there’s not much cheer at Manchester is there?
But they can take heart from the fantastic disply by their young stars against Ajax, among them is Rossi,Martin and Simpson, they played exceptionally well in my opinion.
