Valencia facing FIVE MONTHS out!
Reports today in the national press have suggestion Antonio Valencia, who picked up an injury in the Manchester City game at Old Trafford 18 days ago, will be out for around five months as a result of an operation he has had on his injured foot.
Now, whether I have just been completely oblivious to the extent of the injury or the club have massively held back reports of it's seriousness, the amount of time he is now being forced to sit out has come as a HUGE surprise to me! Regarding the impact to the side however, thankfully Matteo Darmian will be back in contention for the Watford game next Saturday following his one game ban that kept him out of the West Brom win, while Ashley Young (not a natural right-back by any means) has filled in well during the absence of both Darmian and Valencia.
Still, a big loss and of course I wish him all the best in his recovery.
The United winger/right-back has given this reassuring message to the fans on his Twitter page:
Thank God came out well from the operation. Now think about my recovery. @ManUtd @ManUtd_Es pic.twitter.com/eHUVS4uBwh
