Adnan Januzaj has been ruled out for a minimum of six weeks after suffering an ankle injury during Sunderland's 3-2 defeat to Crystal Palace. The on-loan Manchester United winger has impressed following a loan move from Old Trafford, putting in a number of positive performances in the Premier League while scoring a stunning winner in the EFL Cup. In order to assess the extent of the injury the 21-year-old underwent a scan on Tuesday, with the results confirming he suffered ankle ligament damage and now faces an unfortunate spell on the sidelines. A Belgium international, Januzaj will now focus on returning to action as soon as possible.
which rag wrote this mate! ah well, forces Motes hand. **** knows if that's a good or a bad thing, mind you.

I knew there was something bad when he went off, who next for god's sake. Time for PVA to take his place on the wing.
You couldn't make it up, we're having the worst luck this season. Who's responsible, is it you Monty? Time for Khazri I guess but FFS our squad depth is taking the piss. Can we recall Lens, if he's not going to be in a strop?
Wouldn`t be surprised if Khazri was still left out. Moyes doesn`t seem to fancy him at all. Might be Anchovy or possibly McNair as per QPR. More than likely Watmore.
This is the way I have been thinking and mentioned it on another thread but using a 3/2/3/2 set up, not sure of the exact personnel here as I think JoS should be in there to marshall the troops for a game or two. Never thought I would be saying this, but his experience, organisation and leadership have been missing of late.
Moyes does not fancy stroppy temperamental players. Never has. He wants hard workers. You'll be stuck with Pienaar for the next few months.
Which is why he gave Januzaj his debut, played him loads and then signed him on loan when he got here? I like Pienaar.
