Blind blow for stuttering Reds
Date published: 17 November 2014
MANCHESTER United might have been dealt another injury blow after Daley Blind suffered suspected torn knee ligaments playing for Holland last night.
The versatile Blind hobbled out of the game in Amsterdam against Latvia after 20 minutes, which Holland would go on to win 6–0.
Blind said later: “I’m so gutted. I’ll stay positive and will come back stronger! Nevertheless a great win!”
National coach Guus Hiddink suggested Blind could be facing up to six weeks of rehabilitation.
United manager Louis van Gaal, who guided the Netherlands to the World Cup semi–finals in the summer before taking up his post at Old Trafford, is left to count the cost of the international break.
United, currently seventh in the league, play Arsenal away on Saturday.
