VDS out for 8 weeks :(

Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar might be out for up to 8 weeks after a finger surgery. Van der Sar suffered a broken bone on his left hand during United's last match against Bayern Munich in the Audi Cup.

Van der Sar will miss the last preseason match against Valencia, the Community Shield against Chelsea and the first few games of next season's Premier League. Sir Alex Ferguson will have to trust either Ben Foster or Tomasz Kuszczak to tend United's goal during this period.
