Manchester United Faces Major Injury Setback Ahead of Ipswich Clash
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim is dealing with a growing injury list as his squad prepares for their Premier League match against Ipswich Town. With eight key players sidelined, United faces a tough challenge as they aim to break a three-game winless run in the league.
Their most recent fixture saw them draw 2-2 against Everton, a result that highlighted the absence of several first-team regulars.
Ahead of today’s game at Old Trafford, Amorim confirmed that none of the injured players are ready to return, leaving United short on options. Luke Shaw, Kobbie Mainoo, Mason Mount, Jonny Evans, and Toby Collyer remain unavailable, while Lisandro Martinez and Amad Diallo have been ruled out for the rest of the season.
Adding to the concerns, Noussair Mazraoui’s status remains uncertain after he suffered a knee injury against Everton. In response to the injury crisis, Amorim has been turning to the club’s young talents, with Ayden Heaven, Harry Amass, Sekou Kone, Chido Obi-Martin, and Elyh Harrison featuring on the bench in recent matches.
Paul Scholes Picks His All-Time Manchester United Top Five
Manchester United legend Paul Scholes recently shared his top five greatest players in the club’s history during an interview with MailSport on TikTok.
Scholes, who spent two decades at United and won 11 Premier League titles, admitted that narrowing down such a list was no easy task.
Starting at number five, he named Eric Cantona, describing him as a transformative figure during his time at the club. “I played with him for a couple of years, and his impact was incredible,” Scholes recalled.
In fourth place, he chose Bryan Robson, the club’s longest-serving captain. “Robson was a leader in every sense, and in 2011, former players even voted him the greatest United player ever,” he noted.
Coming in third was Roy Keane, a midfield powerhouse and former captain, followed by Wayne Rooney in second place.
For the top spot, Scholes picked Ryan Giggs. “It has to be Giggs. From 17 to 40, his contribution was unbelievable,” he said, cementing Giggs’ legacy as one of United’s finest.
