MANYOO ACCUSED OF LYING OVER ROONEY'S INJURY
ManYoo have been accused of deliberately lying in an attempt to
prevent Wayne Rooney from playing at the World Cup.
A statement released, at the behest of the FA and Rooney, on Friday
evening by the two independent medical experts who treated his
broken foot flatly contradicted previous Old Trafford claims about
the striker's injury.
According to Professors Angus Wallace and Chris Moran, Rooney was
able to recover from his broken foot in just seven weeks because
the injury was unusual.
"We were able to confirm that this fracture was quite different
from the typical metatarsal shaft fracture, but was a fracture
involving the spongy bone at the base of the metatarsal," the
statement read. "This bone heals approximately three times more
quickly than the hard [bone of the metatarsal shaft. Wayne had
discomfort in his foot for only five days and has now been
pain-free for six weeks."
As noted by The Guardian, 'The statement exposes United's
misleading and inaccurate public declaration on May 29 that it was
a double fracture, making it "an injury which takes longer to
heal".'
Furthermore, Wallace and Moran also stated that, following scans on
Rooney's broken metatarsal on June 7, they believed he would be
ready to return for Tuesday's game against Sweden.
'That appears to contradict a United statement released at midnight
on the Thursday after the scan which stated that the "expert
independent medical view is that Wayne has a good chance of being
fit after the group stage"', says The Daily Telegraph.
Their comments also explain why the FA and ManYoo were unable to
agree on a joint statement following the all-important scan in
Manchester.
'United claimed the words they used at the time were taken directly
from the conclusions of the independent medical experts. However,
the fact the doctors have gone public with their belief that the
20-year-old could play before the knockout phase is a major
embarrassment for Old Trafford, and exposes just how determined the
club were to delay Rooney's return to action.'
Previous reports claimed that the FA were 'suspicious' of ManYoo's
'handling of Rooney's rehabilitation and, in particular, their
public claims that the striker was unlikely to play this
summer.'
David Gill and Brian Barwick, the chief executives of ManYoo and
England respectively, are said to have had a heated exchange in
which Barwick branded his ManYoo counterpart as
"irresponsible".
Rooney has publicly refused to comment on his recuperation, but it
is known that Sir Alex Ferguson sought,
on more than one occasion, to persuade his star player to withdraw
from the tournament of his own accord.
According to The Guardian, 'Rooney was 'distinctly unimpressed'
with Ferguson's attitude.

I understand SAF, you scared of Chelski. So you faked Rooney's
injury so that Rooney will be hungry and will perform for Man U
100% throughout the next season....
