Rooney Out For A Month
I usually don’t come out with these updatey kind of posts but I’ll make an exception.
Rooney is out. Ankle Injury in Training. One Month. Four Weeks. Plenty of Games.
Here’s the news confirming that.
And yes, you guessed it. I am gutted for him. Very much.
And these are the games he’ll most likely miss.
Sunday, 11 November 2007 EPL Man Utd v Blackburn
Saturday, 24 November 2007 EPL Bolton v Man Utd
Tuesday, 27 November 2007 UCL Man Utd v Sporting
Monday, 03 December 2007 EPL Man Utd v Fulham
Saturday, 08 December 2007 EPL Man Utd v Derby
Wednesday, 12 December 2007 UCL Roma v Man Utd
Sunday, 16 December 2007 EPL Liverpool v Man Utd
As you may notice, apart from the Blackburn game the games that he’ll miss aren’t the worst ones (keeping in mind the international break) He might return in time for the ‘pool game. That is a hope, though.
Discuss.

goddamit den has it really been 10 games since we beat you 2-0?
on another note, its a shame that rooney misses the derby match. . i was kind of looking forward to him scoring in his sleep in that one
oh and conor i disagree with you about anderson dropping back, he’s shown himself to drop back because of his position on the pitch. . attacking midfielder. . one would have to believe that he would play differently as a striker, just as rooney plays different as a lead striker

den – I’ll be looking forward to seeing your team’s performances, when Essien, Kalou, Mikel and Drogba are away for 6 weeks playing the ANC… good luck to the rest of them.

Well yea thats a good point jon but I just don’t think we’ll ever get the chance to see how Anderson would play upfront. By the way, I wuite like the look of this guy Fraizer Campbell, I know he’s playing in the championship b ut still, he can score goals, gets into good positioins and hes fast.

well den looks like you idiots are going to have to settle for a draw rather smash 4 past them. damn dude your seriously naive…do you honestly believe each and every transfer rumour out there…as i said shevchenko has become a has been or may be he just cant settle into the fast and furious nature of this league..as for ballack well i think he might just quit the club considering how disenchanted he looks….and for the rest of the guys you’ve talked about i’m shuddering to think what they may do…not!!

Pity over Rooney, but this was the main reason that SAF got Tevez in the first place…to have adequate cover when Rooney is out. Last season, whenever he or Ronaldo were out, our team struggled to cope. This year, we have the necessary cover.
In fact, it’s only about 3 games that Rooney is out for and that we’ll need Saha to fill in. I’m sure his body can cope with that.
I do agree however, we need another striker. We would have been ok if Ole was still around.

Wayne will no doubt be a huge miss over the next month but the fixtures are not the toughest so I don’t envisage it being too much of a problem.
What money he returns at Anfield, still in form, and score the winner.
