Striker, Louis Saha from Manchester United are still being bugged with his knee and will miss his teams trip to Dynamo Kiev as the Champion League is about to start.

The French internations has a long standing injury with his knee that he agrravated in a warm up session right before the game agianst Wigan in the Premiership.  Saha also missed the game against Aston Villa on Saturday as United crushed  them 4-1.  Defender Nemanja Vidic has been named int he squad and we will have to see if the concussion that he received agianst Wigan is going to cause him any problems.  Vidic also missed the game against Aston Villa on Saturday.

 

Sir Alex Ferguson said that Vidic is a doubtfull starter against Dynamo Kiev.  Vidic practised on Friday and he comlained of sl

Louis Saha is more famous for being on the treatment table than scoring important goals it seems, and that is a real shame.

When he is fit and firing he is superb, take the first half of last season as an example, but unfortunately he spends too long on the sidelines and we do miss his presence up front sometimes.

Perhaps it is time Fergie looked at a striker with similar attributes to Louis so that we have good cover.

Hmm…Shame there really is no other striker out there with his attributes that’ll join us. Let’s look at the possibilities, shall we?

1) Drogba. He looks as likely to sign for us when he leaves Chelsea as Derby do of scoring more than two goals at home in any games this season.

2) Henry. He gets sadistic pleasure from destroying us every time he plays us. Not gonna happen.

3) Zlatan. Well, no.

4) Ronaldo. Hell, we all know there’s only one Ronaldo. At least, a young, fit, still able to play one.

5) Torres. That one went kinda hit and miss. Leave him at the Kop. He looks better with a rooster on his shirt anyway.

6) Ruud. Well he doesn’t like us any more, now does he?

7) Um… I’m kinda running outta options here, since I’ve run through the PROVEN strikers that have his ability.

So we have to rely on one of two things:
a) a FIT Saha destroying defenses for us for years to come (at least, one game at a time) OR b) praying that a wonder kid shows up. Give that Fraizer kid we’ve got a chance. Or heck, why not that 10 year old Rooney we found on YouTube? He looks pretty good to me? Replacing Saha isn’t going to happen. We still haven’t replaced Ruud. But heck, that’s worked out pretty good with Tevez, right? So lets just git rid of Saha and find another wonderstriker at some unbeknownst underacheiving club. CROUCH FOR MAN U!!!!!lolz

Well, if you ask me, we already found the striker to work with Rooney — Tevez. There were a lot of detractors in the beginning complaining that they were too similar in play to be truly creative and effective. Well guess what? They ARE creative and extremely effective right now! You would be hard pressed to find a better one-touch combination (more than one player) goal this season by any team.

Ok, thats great we have Tevez. Rooney’s feet have a bad habit of not staying in one piece. We haven’t seen enough of Tevez to know what injury problems he may/may not have. You still need another good striker to either back them up or give them a rest. We need Saha.
