Metatarsal... Not Again !!!

What is it with the England Football team and the Metatarsal bone... It certainly is the "Haddi" in thier "Kababs". The papers call it the "Curse of the Metatarsal" and I quite certainly agree. If my memory serves me right, I think this is the third time in a row that before any important competition the Metatarsal has played the ghost for the English camp, and twice to the same player. And they say Lightning does not strike the same place twice !!! For WC 2002 it was David Beckham and for the last two times its been "wonder kid" Wayne Rooney. He broke his Metatarsal in the Euro 2004 and now just before WC he's broken it again. It is so agonising for us fans not to see such an amazing player in action (I can't even imagine how bitter Wayne would be).

I was so looking forward to this yrs cup (I still am), to see Ronaldinhio, C Ronaldo, Rooney and Messie. 4 great young players, each vying for the elusive dream. It is so heart-breaking to not see one of them play, especially when the English camp depends so heavily on him. The England team without their killer striker does not even come close to being champions. I know Owen is fit, but he hasn't been the same ever since all those Hamstrings pulls. This also calls in question why Mr Fergusson kept playing Rooney even when ManU was down 3-0 in the 79th min and with little chance of catching Chelsea in thier league match and the race to the cup. Don't get me wrong being a ManU fan it absolutely pains me to see the Million Dollar Boys take the Premiership title. Instead of The Blues they might as well be called The GREENS coz that is whatz driving them... the CASH, the MOOLAH !!! And even after spending so much to build a team like that the best they could do was the League Cup... THEY SUCK !!! CHEL$HITS...Atleast the ARSEHOLS could reach the UEFA championship finals, where ultimately they are gonna have their ARSES kicked by Ronaldinhio and co. Anyways point being wouldn't it have been better to take Rooney off and not risk an injury which he ultimately sustained, that late in the game.

Anyone reading this plssssssssssssssssss pray that Rooney has a miraculous recovery in six weeks time (I have my fingers, hands, legs crossed) . For a better WC. For better competition. For England FC.

Champion Champion Ole Ole Ole !!!
