RVP blow for United
Manchester United's positive week took a turn for the worse on Friday afternoon as striker Robin van Persie was ruled out for "around four to six weeks" with a sprained knee.
The Barclays Premier League champions announced the bad news on their official Twitter page, with the Holland international cut down just two days after firing the club into the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
Van Persie's hat-trick against Olympiacos had been viewed as a possible turning point in United's poor season, but he was later carried off on a stretcher with Friday's news meaning he may not play again until May.

Moyes also said beating Liverpool on Sunday would be 'a big boost' and described the fixture as 'still the biggest game in the league'.
He said Nani is back in training and that Rafael, Javier Hernandez and Jonny Evans all have a chance of playing on Sunday.
