Rooney can play in the World Cup!!

The injury is fine & he just needs to get match fit :cool:

Fair play to Sven too, he won't take any more questions about Rooney & his foot

Sven: "Rooney is injury free"

edit: that was quick. good news though

Surely Walcott will be a bench warmer now?

Hasn't that always been the plan?

Not if Owen got injured I don't think. I could have seen Sven bringing him on and trying to make him be an 'impact sub'. I know that's mad, but then so was the squad selection

If he is fine and just needs match fitness then could we possibly see him on for 20 minutes or so against Trinidad and Tobago, seeing as that should be a pretty easy match?

Still a bit confused how he can be injury free after such a short amount of time, but its great news anyway.

That goal agaisnt Charlton is amazing goal of the season

Yeah, that was absolutely stunning. Van Nistelrooys control amazes me.

It's literally because he's the next coming of Christ.
Like I said before, he has everything except indestructable feet... and even those heal fast!

there's no way he'll play against trinadad, i doubt we'll see him before the sweden game on the bench

Yeah Van the man, shame that it looks like he's gonna leave ManYoo. I'm not a ManYoo fan it will just be sad to see such a world class player leave the prem. :mad:

Btw Mikey Owen is gonna score 2 on Saturday, England to win 2-0...

Come on Lads

i think it could work out quite well, rooney has at least two weeks training and i think it would be a great team boost to get him back in the last 16, we can get through the group stage without him
