Just went down like a sack of spuds and in absolute agony. Let's hope it's nothing serious although doesn't look promising. I think we all knew this would happen at some point.

    2-3 weeks, that would be fine. For England anyway. It's just the way he went down and landed on the ankle and the reaction of agony after that makes me think it could be more serious. Fingers crossed!

    Well lets just hope it is 2-3 weeks.

    Aaron Lennon was supposed to be out for a fortnight and its turned into nearly 4 months now.

    Telephone call for Mr Bent....telephone call for Mr Bent....
  • IF rooney is out of the world cup, then we'll have to go with a more conventional front 2. Crouch and defoe (should be bent, but hes out of favour for some reason) or, if fit, heskey and owen.

    not happy about this, dont care for united but if he is injured think englands chances are about 1%, where as with rooney not a bad chance 20% imo

    See you at Betfair if you believe we've got a 5-1 chance.

    He went over on his ankle, didn't break it, he'll be fine for the World Cup.

    Probably even be back playing in a few weeks!

    sprained ankle, no ligament or bone damage, 2-4 weeks on the sidelines

    7th time he's sprained that ankle in his career apparently - weakness?

    nichrob...there's spraining an ankle badly and spraining an ankle by just tweaking it a bit, most of us who've played sports can testify that if you do it badly it's damn painful.I can assure you it will be lovely colours of black and blue today.
    I must say I don't quite understand your drama queen comment, he's obviously done it badly.

    Turning your ankle is very painful. Especially if you have done it before. Glass ankle syndrome.

    A bit of ice and then heat and our Wayne should be fine.

    It was said in jest thinking at the time he had broken it. I played football a few years back and have now stopped due to ligament damage, I understand the pain only too well.

    Betfair is an exchange that allows you to either bet or lay any outcome, which means you are either betting on a result like in a conventional bookies and only risking your stake or against the result where you are in effect the bookie yourself and are responsible for covering any bets you take, ie a £100 bet @ 10/1 means you're liable for £1000 if it wins but keep the stake if it loses.

    Anyway the consensus seems to be England are about 6/1 to lift the cup, personally i think it's crazy to back a northern European team in African conditions at that price and will be laying England pretty heavily.

    When Rooney hits a hatrick in the final i'm going to regret this post ;-)

    I think it's crazy not to consider which country in Africa it's being played in. South African winters can get very cold. This World Cup will be better suited to Europeans than any other tournament outside of Europe (especially English speaking Europeans).
