Alan Smith Suffers Horrific Break
« on: Saturday, 18 February, 2006, 16:18.35 »

Manchester United have confirmed that Alan Smith has suffered a broken leg, as well as a dislocated ankle, in an injury that Sir Alex Ferguson has described as one of the worst he has seen in football.

The England international came on as a substitute in the 1-0 FA Cup defeat at the hands of Liverpool, but was stretchered off with full time approaching after blocking a free kick from John Arne Riise.

Smith appeared to fall heavily on his left ankle and the incident caused considerable concern amongst the United players as he lay stricken on the ground.

Seven minutes of injury time were added at Anfield, and it has now been confirmed that Smith has gone to hospital after suffering the nasty break. 

Red Devils boss Ferguson has gone as far as to suggest that Smith's problem is one of the worst he has seen in over 30 years of management, and the blow ends the former Leeds man's participation in the rest of the season, as well as the World Cup finals.

"He has broken his leg and dislocated the ankle joint," Ferguson told MUTV.

"It is a bad one. He has gone to hospital, it looks very long term - it is one of the worst I have seen. I am sure he will be back."


Feel sorry for the lad, will definately be out of the World Cup. I wish him a speedy recovery

I liked his style of play for Leeds, and he had very pretty hair.  Smiley

More effective in midfield than up front I think. Shame, I think he could've been really good at the World Cup, should he have been selected...

this makes no sense , he cannot play in midfield ,he is a stiker and has no interest in tracking back and helping out the rest of the team , did you miss those champions league games where he made no contribution at all this season

His goalscoring record (or lack of) speaks for itself...

I dunno if any of you saw it, but it was a pretty horrendous stack... Looked a tad sickening though as you saw it just wrap it self back and under him.

Yuk.

Horrific is a good word!!!
