English Premier News :: Rooney misses Man United clash with Bolton as calf injury lingers on

Posted on 2009-10-16 by Gooner

Wayne Rooney will miss Manchester United's match against Bolton because of a calf injury he suffered during England's defeat in Ukraine last week.

United have matches against CSKA Moscow and Liverpool coming up, and Ferguson is hopeful that Rooney will at least be fit for the latter.

"Calf injuries can be troublesome," said Ferguson. "We are trying our best to get him fit for Wednesday but I have my doubts on that. But Wayne should be fit for the Liverpool game.

"We know how difficult these things can be so we will not be taking any chances with the Moscow trip."
