Cartoon of the Day: Sir Alex left to sweat as Kagawa & Van Persie limp back

Cartoon of the Day: Sir Alex left to sweat as Kagawa & Van Persie limp back

Latest Arsenal need the old Arsene Wenger, not a new manager Previous
13 Sep 2012 12:00:00

Goal.com cartoonist Omar Momani gives us his unique take on the football news of the day

With Wayne Rooney already sidelined with a gashed leg, the last result Sir Alex Ferguson will have wanted from the international break is more injuries to his collection of forwards.

He will not have been pleased, then, to see Robin van Persie and Shinji Kagawa limp off their flights back to Manchester. Van Persie was substituted at half-time in the Netherlands' match against Hungary, while Kagawa did not play for Japan against Iraq.

Sir Alex does, at least, have Javier Hernandez and Danny Welbeck to call upon as the Red Devils prepare to face Wigan Athletic.
