Rooney set to miss season opener

Rooney set to miss season opener

Striker Wayne Rooney is set to miss the opening match of Manchester United's Premier League campaign on 17 August after picking up a virus.


To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.


The 22-year-old contracted the mystery virus on United's pre-season tour of Nigeria and has not trained since.

"I doubt Wayne will be fit for the start of the season," said United boss Sir Alex Ferguson.

"It's a virus he picked up in Nigeria and it's not a nice one. He's not been back in training yet."

Ferguson revealed Rooney's illness was diagnosed by the club's own laboratory.

He also added that the squad had only taken malaria tablets ahead of the trip to Africa.

Rooney's illness leaves Ferguson facing a selection dilemma ahead of the opening match of the season at home to Newcastle.

Cristiano Ronaldo will miss the first two months of the season following ankle surgery regardless of whether he moves to Real Madrid or stays at Old Trafford.

Portuguese midfielder Nani is suspended while Anderson is on Olympic duty with Brazil.

Rooney's problems could also reignite Ferguson's interest in signing Tottenham forward Dimitar Berbatov.

As it stands, Ferguson has only Carlos Tevez, untested youngster Fraizer Campbell and Louis Saha to choose from up front.

"I don't know whether we will have a team ready," said Ferguson. "Nani is suspended, Anderson is in the Olympic Games.

"(Michael) Carrick's come in this morning and he may play a part of the game on Sunday."

Rooney had sat on the sidelines when Manchester United played FA Cup winners Portsmouth in a friendly in Abuja on 27 July.

He then missed his club's two subsequent pre-season fixtures against Espanyol and Peterborough.

The virus means he could also miss England's friendly against the Czech Republic at Wembley on 20 August.
-BBC Sport.

No Ronaldo, no Rooney, no Nani, no Anderson.... ok we're in trouble. We made a horrible start last year due to the absence of key players. We might not get away with it this time. For fucks sake sign someone.

He didn't score a huge amount but most people would tell you that he played a key role in our success. He is a team player.

No now you see that is where United fans are so biased, not you, but we get 'Kuyt is shit he doesn't score' all the time but he works his ass off.

Yeah well people who say hes shit because he doesn't score are wrong, but Rooney had a better season than Kuyt. It is not just about working hard, Rooney is still a touch of class and this was evident last season.

I wasn't saying Kuyt has a better season, was just making that point of similarity.

True.

He got 18 goals last season. Hardly bad.
