Republic of Ireland manager Giovanni Trapattoni has confirmed that John O’Shea has a blood clot on his calf, which could mean he would miss two months if it was aggravated.
He hasn’t been able to walk thanks to the injury he sustained in his country’s 2-1 win over Cyprus.
“He has blood on the muscle and it is up to the club to decide but I have told him to be careful because it is an area of the leg which makes it difficult to run and he could be out for two months,” said Trapattoni. “He and the club must decide. He could not walk today and he could not play in the game here tomorrow because he could not run.”





Man Utd News 24/7






















Fucking Internationals. All those people that slag Sheasy may now realise what a loss he will be. Lets hope the rest of the back 5 can get fit and STAY fit. Gutted actually.
Hate when players are injured in international games and then the players club must take care of the player! Fuck the international games!
O’Sheasy, Ji, Wesley (and formerly Fletch) are the glue that hold this team together. Season after season. We will sorely miss our Jack of all trades, master of none.
Fucking useless internationals. Blathering Blatter is likely sitting on his fat ass right now with a smirk on his face.
While I hate to see United players injured, ever, why hate internationals? Plenty of folks love their national team as much as the club they love. I am one. I hope for great success for England and Northern Ireland (yes I know O’Shea plays for the republic) as they are just as dear to me as United. Sometimes United players get injured and can’t make international duty, and I wish they hadn’t, but I know that players should go all out for the teams they play for. Do you think O’Shea thinks “fuck the internationals” when he pulls on an Ireland shirt? How about Evans when he suits up for N’orn, Or Rooney when he wears the 3 lions??
Well, speedy recovery John, you’ll be missed by United, and Ireland as well.
If not treated properly, they could remove the whole muscle.
Excuse my geekness, but this is the same thing that Dr. House from TV had.. thats why he walks with cane..
its what you call in medical terms a hematoma!
which in basic terms means he has a big bruise on his calf! nothing to worry about!
Ah damn it! We need Sheasy, let’s hope the rest of our defenders stay fit for some while. I’m not that optimistic on that subject. But I’m waiting in vain to see Hargo again, wouldn’t mind seeing him as right back when he’s back in action.
Actually, kiko (excuse my geekness again)
its called Thrombosis and judging by the fact that its in his leg, it could be a Deep Vein Thrombosis
FUCK INTERNATIONALS!
Good ridden to bad player like John Oshea,without him the team is much more stronger and without the aged senior players the team is execellent.
even worse that he was injured in a game where all he could do was hit the ball long cause trap is a bleedin muppet…
sheasy = hero….
A comment like that coming from a guy who calls himself “ManU” says it all….
Manu – Are you serious? Awful comment. clueless.
That comment has annoyed me actually “ManU”. Won’t even go into your choice of username. How are we stronger without JOS? Who has helped the defence out time and time again and particularly last season by covering in every defensive position (inc Keeper) when players have been injured. A very solid, reliable and useful player. A great character as well on and off the pitch.
@manu
i think you are a WUM!
Well said Gudjohsen.. Seriously though, people need to check their club’s history before jumping on the bandwagon.. Change your moniker mate. You are only embarassing yourself
Has anyone read that the Argie scum Tevez is also injured and will probably miss the derby? Fucking convinent of him to do so.. Bet he is faking it to delibrately miss the game after considering the welcome that will greet him at Old Trafford.. LOL!
Ofcourse he’s a wind up merchant. If he is a United fan, fuck him. Probably a bin dipping gremlin.
Sheasy recover soon. Top player, even better lad
if it is a deep vein thrombosis, he just needs some medication to break up the clot. it is a serious condition, as it can cause death. probably just the media making up a story out of a bruise
http://www.physioroom.com/news/english_premier_league/epl_injury_table.php
Hargo back at 3rd October!!!!
Hope O Solid recovers fast, he is a really important member of our squad
On other note, does this mean Rafael da Silva will play against that heap of mediocrity Spurs?
@ManU – It’s people like you that really get me going. It’s clear you don’t know shit about this club, so keep your worthless comments to yourself, you fucking twat.
1st of all to manu WE DONT CALL THE CLUB MANU
2nd I HATE INTERNATIONALS! FUCK FUCK FUCK!!!!
ENGLAND, IRELAND, ANYOTHER COUNTRY’S THAT GET OUR PLAYERS INJURED IS GOING TO MY LIST!
That’s just great. Exactly what we needed! We haven’t heard anything on Rio’s fitness either, so i doubt he will be ready for Saturday. And lets not forget that Valencia is in action across the Atlantic. If it’s just a bruise, then we must let time heal it and hopefully Sheasy will be back soon.
instead of breaking up the regular season why not play all the club fixtures first then play all the internationals after the season is over.it would reduce the length of the season and keep the players fresher through the year instead of some travelling half way around the world.On any logical level its totally f**ked right now
The down side of having international quality players is that they err play internationals.
Injury couldn’t have come at a worse time.
Hope Mr glass aka wes brown can stay fit, go in with evra vidic rio and wes with neville and silva on the bench, down to the bare bones at the back now.
Should have gone for toure from barca in the summer could play midfield and at the back .
is hargreaves due back soon?
onemanunited.wordpress.com , can I take it from your comment that you are not from England?
I do appreciate the NOT MANU, as I can’t stress that enough when people say that in front of me.
jim: well said
99: his injured i think..so will be neville or brown or da laet
Doesn’t sound good at all.
Get well Johnny. I might get slated for this but amongst my current(as in the team we have). O’Shea is in my top 5 favorite players
Not particularly for his talent but for the job he does for us. Respect Sheasy!
Get well soon JOS.
But, maybe this can give DeLaet another chance?
Get well soon John-boy! I get that on my long-haul flightights to Korea sometimes. must be a workhorse thang!
Wishing O’Shea a quick recovery and agree with Drew, we can give De Laet a shot… for all i knw spurs dont have a strong left side so I wont panic just yet
De Laet! De Laet! De Laet!!! I am not sure about Rafael’s defending yet. Fucking internationals, as long as Wazza is all right for our next match, we really cannot afford to lose him this season!!! Hope O’Shea is all right though, considering he covers for Evra too! I think Wazza, Evra, Vida and Fletch would be our definites in the team for the season!!
Jim, you will find that some of us here are not from England or Europe for that matter, mate. Unfortunate, but I am part of the Telly watching brigade who MAY if they are very very lucky get to see United at OT once in their lives!! Well, we do our part, I guess!
My favourite United player. Get well soon,John.
KJ:House or Freddie Flintoff??
Wes if fit at right back on Saturday. Fabio can play there.
Just when we needed backup for our injured defence, we lose THE backup. de Laet or Fabio to fill in at right back, sure, but we’re going to miss Sheasy’s versatility if we happen to *god forbid* suffer another injury somewhere else on the pitch.
Don’t we still have Brown, Evans, Vidic, and Evra fit? I can’t remember or not to be honest, but I thought we did.
He is a big loss because we are weak at the back and are riddled with injuries. I think we need to be careful as it is early and need to be healthy for the long stretch of December and the spring. Get it fixed now. We don’t want Evans and O’Shea down to long nor at the same time. Hope we can maintain and get some people back soon. Is Rafael fit yet?
Ya they are but Evans has an ankle injury that could require surgery but recent sings look like the won’t need it after all. But I have my concerns. Brown is still coming back from an injury and Rio could come back but both seem to have injuries that could go at any moment. It just takes Rio stretching the wrong way. Losing O’Shea is a big blow. He has become one of our best defenders and I think you strongly consider him for every squad and every game. He is at the very least my first defensive player off the bench. I think Rafael can handle it or De Laet who has impressed me so far. We are entrusting them to step and decided to do this summer by not spending. This is a true test of Fergie’s faith in the squad. In Fergie We Trust!
This wasnt a meaningless friendly. It was a wc qualifier. And we won. We are on the cusp of qualifying to only our 4th ever wc. Thats like winning the thing to an england fan. With our irelands limited squad oshea is an even more important cornerstone than he can b for united. Now im usually club before country man myself but with only 2 home games left i just pray he will fit for the italy game. United will cope with the squad we have. Ireland wont.
It cant have been a thrombosis guys, thats way too serious to be mentioned in such a light tone, and immediate treatment is necessary.
Its probably just a hematoma. Will take a month to dissolve.
id just like to say that this is most probably utter rubbish. trap just sent home 5 of his best players and the man cannot be trusted with any media challenge. this is the man who has given us the wise words “We are no Brazil”. I guarantee that shaysey will be in the weekend squad. Richard Dunne and Robbie Keane have also been struck down with deadly injuries by a god who most certainly sees an Irish side winning too many games (or not losing as many) for his liking. Utter rubbish
Im with you on this Venu. Pakistan so im quite a fair distance away but I must visit the Theatre of Dreams once atleast so i can die happy
But i reckon we have an important role to play, we still buy the club merchandise and support in every way can. Who said Man Utd fans have to be English. Isn’t that the whole point of the Republik of Mancunia?
United > internationals
Get well soon JOS
“ManU” you’re a twat, as your nickname suggests.
@Irish Red
and all irish reds
you know John Oshea is better off away from that irish set up
they never ever let oshea create
kick the ball up the field loving team we(ireland ) have gone back to
if oshea played the irish way at united he would of been playing for newcastle in 2001
Good news Oshea will be playing /or even availble to play on saturday
and will be allowed to turn on the ball and maybe pass it to A midfielder to do something with it
I, JAMES PICKERING, Want nothing but the best for ireland
but the best for manchester united player Oshea he needs to paul scholes that team before it poisons the lad
Where the hell is Rafael???! And yeah we have got De Laet. Was very impressed with the lad in a friendly match recently. He linked quite well with Valencia overlapping just like evra and nani on the other side of the pitch! yeah! couldnt believe it but defended very well and had great contribution in attacking from the wings. No need to worry.
Oh! Superman, not this time.hope this isn’t true. Internationals???
If it was an important player, then you should be worried. o’Shea is nothing more than a squad player
Good ridden to bad rubbish and John Oshea is not a player of MU quality but is Fergi favourite son eventhough he is the worst player.In fact he should be shown the exit door long ago instead of Gerard Pique and that was a big a mistake Fergi ever did .
“ManU” No offence but get fucked! You posted a very similar comment yesterday and got shit loads of abuse for it. Why the fuck would you post the same thing again. You CANNOT possibly be a United fan. Take it you don’t rate Fletch either?
Manu
you havent a fucking clue
from your name to your football knowhow you just sound hick all the time
im gonna really take it your about 11 years old and think ronaldo is the single greatest player of all time i bet you have a ghd and a diamond earring
the reason united have won 11 premier leagues is not just because of robson cantona keane rooney etc its john oshea david may phil neville
ya fuckin dink
@ ManU Fuck off you bin dipping twat… Scott ban this muppet….
@ ghtt… LOL…. ghd and diamond earring….. want to bet he tucks his tracksuit bottoms into his dirty white socks too!!!!
TIME FOR WESLEY BROWN TO RETURN TO RB FOR A WHILE
HEEEES BIG HES BROWN HES WESLEY BROWN
THE TOUGHEST LAD IN ALL THE TOWN
WITH ORANGE HAIR BEWAREEE
