What happened to Shea Lacey since his sending off against Brighton in the FA Cup has been the subject of questions sent in via our ‘Ask about Manchester United’ form – and it’s a good question.
Lacey scored six goals in three Premier League 2 appearances following that FA Cup tie.
He was also on the bench for the Premier League home game against Fulham on 1 February, but didn’t come on, presumably because Marco Silva’s side mounted a late fightback.
However, he has not been involved in any game, at any level, since 2 February and hasn't featured in any of the training images the club put out a couple of times a week.
There have been suggestions Lacey has been suffering from a minor calf complaint, although United have not confirmed – or denied – that officially.
Lacey has suffered so much with injury in the past couple of years, United will not want to take any chances. It will be interesting to see if he is named in any England age-group squads for the forthcoming internationals.
