Rooney blow for England

Rooney cut on thigh
Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney is likely to be out for four weeks after suffering a leg injury during the 3-2 win over Fulham.

Rooney had been dropped to the bench for the game at Old Trafford, but was introduced in the second half for Shinji Kagawa.
However, with United hanging on for the win in injury-time, Rooney suffered a huge cut to his right leg after he had attempted to charge down Hugo Rodallega's shot.
Rodallega's studs appeared to inadvertently come down on Rooney's leg and the England international was stretchered off after the United physio had attempted to close the wound.
Speaking after the game, United boss Sir Alex Ferguson confirmed he is likely to be without Rooney for the next month.
