Late on, the freekick that Hugo Rodellega took, if that was Clint Dempsey, I think the free-kick may have been more promising

I am sad , seeing Rooney's current condition , He's probably sidelined for two to three weeks minimum I guess .

------------------------------

For what?

A cut to the leg

The stretcher was a complete over dramatisation to run down the clock.

Are you serious? It was a nasty deep wound. He's actually on his way to hospital right now, so maybe they are continuing the act to run down the clock after the game.

it was a very nasty cut - will need multiple stitches.

In the 2011 UEFA Champions League semi final between Barca and Real Madrid, Dani Alves needed a stretcher after a tackle by Pepe.........but Pepe didn't even touch him

Thanks for that wonderful piece of history.

Not if you're a pansy. I've had plenty of deep gashes before, I've always managed to finish the job.

clearly some people have not seen the incident.

.....

A 1 inch cut to his thigh. The blood dripped down about 3 inches.

I've seen it, analized it and come to the conclusion, Wayne Rooney is a pansy.

Yh Ron, I'm not a medical expert, but that needed more than "a couple of stitches."

and ive came to the conclusion your a Muppet.

Sure he would just come off and leave the team down to 10 men

Discredit your own reply.

Garunteed he has nothing more than single digit stitches.

He was expecting minimum time to be played. What should have only taken 30 seconds maximum to be walked of the pitch, ended up taking over 2 minutes. By which time, added time was up, luckily the referee knew what Rooney was up to.

Moron. Try closer to 30.

posted on 25/8/12

how do you know he was expecting the ref to play minimum time? Thats just an unfounded statement.



posted on 25/8/12

Rooney looked so bored on the bench that when he eventually came on he wanted to come off straight away !!

--------------------------------------------



30, it was barely an inch wide. 3 butterfly stitches would probably be enough.

Why would anybody expect the referee to play any longer than the minimum added time?

Unless of course you we're a goal down at old trafford.

----------------------------------------------------

Because its the minimum and there are stops in stock-age time which make the time run over.

Jus done the calculations, only 3.32 minutes of stoppage time was actually played.

Rooneys plan worked.
