from manutd.com:

David Beckham has been ruled out of action for two to three weeks with a fractured rib.

United confirmed the injury late on Saturday evening, after David had a scan on the knock on Friday afternoon.

It is believed he picked up the injury during the 2-0 win over Bayer Leverkusen on Wednesday night, as he was seen clutching his ribs as he left the pitch.

Becks is out of Sunday's match against West Ham, and possibly the matches against Newcastle and Liverpool.

David joins Roy Keane, Nicky Butt and Rio Ferdinand on the Old Trafford treatment table.

Total bummer - never known a season for such concentration of injuries - means that there is nowhere to hide for the likes of Giggs and Veron but it will be tough to face the scousers with 4 or 5 of our best players out of action - and even if some will be back for the gooners they will be coming off long lay-offs and far from match fit.
