Anyone else think its blatantly obvious that he wasn't injured today, but was dropped for what he said about the RVP/Williams incident?

He has hurt "ligaments in the back of his knee" & will be out for "2 to 3 weeks".

But yes blatantly obvious. Why wait for facts when the conspiracy theories could be formed.
 
Excuse me?

You don't think that's something Fergie would do? He and Evans got dropped for Blackburn last year for going out a week before the match. This week Rooney directly contradicted what the gaffer had said, there's no way Fergie would just let that go.

So the injury is a front?
 
According to some, he and Young were clearly not injured.

Apparently we are going to keep this pretence up for 3 weeks.
 
fecks sake.

There are far too many injuries picked up in training.
 
So the injury is a front?

Well I heard Fergie went out and properly injured Nani just to make sure the news wouldn't break out it was all a lie. That's why you saw him limping at the statue unveiling. He's probably putting the squeeze on a terrified Nani right now, leaning in to him close, whispering the date of the transfer window while delivering swift jabs to the abdomen.
 
Put it this way, I would not be in the slightest bit surprised if he plays on Monday, after some sort of 'quick recovery'.

Might be nothing in it, just seems a rather big coincidence that he gets 'injured' a few days after directly contradicting something that Fergie had made a major deal out of.

:lol:
What do you think he has done to Rooney then?

Shaved all his hair off and drawn it back on with a permanent marker. I've been looking into his off-field antics for a while now and it's just the sort of sick sadistic thing he'd do. He used to grab the twins, spin them around till they were all confused and dizzy, then have the whole squad kick balls at them for 10 minutes at a time. It served no purpose at all ffs, absolutely none, but he still did it and danced while it happened. Carrington is a place of nightmares.

Tell us more hectic, tell us more. What happened to welbeck and young?
 
So is he really out for 2 weeks? Is that what Sir Alex said or is it twitter shite?

According to the bbc :(

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson: "I thought it was a bad decision for the own goal. If you see it again he's offside he's also grabbed Jonny Evans on the arm and if that's not interference what is interference?

"December is always a big month. We dropped two points at Swansea but me made up for it today. It was a real championship performance. Rooney has done a ligament at the back of his knee and he will be out for two or three weeks. We are running out of ammunition."
 
He's really injured. SAF wouldn't say he's done his ligament if he's going to be back for the next match. Minimum two weeks out for me. On the official site as well.

SAF isn't going to do all this to surprise West Brom.
 
Done a ligament apparently, 2-3 weeks out. Could be fergie just exaggerating it though. Bit of a blow if true cause we've sided rvp a lot, would be good to give him a break esp with his injury record. Kagawa must be back soon though so he could step in to the a/m role with rvp/Hernandez/welbeck up top.
 
Reuters: Rooney will be doing intensive physio training - Mike Phelan's tying a Christmas pudding to the back of his bike, and Rooney will run after him as Phelan pedals down the M6.
 
Tell us more hectic, tell us more. What happened to welbeck and young?

Welbeck got into a wrestling match with Mike Phelan - yes it was all Phelan's doing, he gets on the shots in the training sessions, banging one down for every received pass, no-one counts though, its insane - Welbeck just happened to be the closest to him, he got a Phelan Piledriver to the head, three weeks out standard procedure. Phelan walked it off laughing and stumbled away for more of the hard stuff. Fergie catching the end of it was livid, he saw Young's weirdly angled and pointed face, the permanent grin-smirk, and that precision bald head; of course he snapped. Tied him upto a goal-post, threw a few slaps around the face area and had Büttner stare at him, just stare at him, unblinking while moving ever closer. Young's out on some psych damage, maybe a couple weeks before Fergie loses his rag and puts him back in though.

I like the part with Young and Büttner.

Welcome back Hectic. Missed you.
 
Will there ever be a day when we can select from the entire 25 man squad. Its just shocking how easily our players get injured. A few come back and then all of a sudden injuries pop up in another area of the team.
 
Just saw this in an article on the Mail site discussing Van Persie.

I wanted to post this for two reasons. First so we could all revel in having the two best players in the league, and second so I could again make the claim that Rooney is the best scorer of headers in the Premier League. People forget that headers are relatively rare, and so it goes unnoticed that he scores more than anyone else. Well, except maybe Crouch, but he's not exactly prolific so it might just be that a lot of his goals are headers.
 
Also noticed no-one has as even a Right foot/ left foot goals as RVP, not that his are even but everyone else's are 90/10 to their preferred foot, whereas he is more 66/33

Quite impressive
