    <span class="titolo">Silvestre Out For The Season</span></p>

    <span class="sommario">Mikael Silvestre has been ruled out for pretty much the rest of this season with a cruciate ligament injury.</span></p>

    The Frenchman had to be taken off in Saturday's 1-0 over Everton after catching his studs in the Goodison Park pitch and falling very awkwardly.</p>

    Scans carried out on Sunday have revealed that the defender had damaged a cruciate knee ligament, whichmeans he is unlikely to return before the end of April.</p>

    This leaves Manchester United slightly short on cover in the defensive department, particularly given the departure of Gabriel Heinze.</p>

    It does mean, though, that young Gerard Pique could see more of the action in a senior team shirt, along with some of his junior team friends such as Jonny Evans, Danny Simpson and Phil Bardsley.</p>

    Darren Fletcher and John O'Shea are also injured at the moment.</p>

    Not good news for Utd. Wonder if they'll sign anyone now.
