The vulnerable English ankle

OK, now Manchester United and Chelsea are even (well, not really). Ashley Cole went down with a broken ankle a few weeks ago (his marriage still appears broken too, but we'll see how that goes), which wasn't good for Chelsea or England. Now, on the verge of an important Premier League match between the two leading teams (Man U. leads Chelsea by a point), superstriker Wayne Rooney sprains his ankle. Two angles on the ankle below:

England's worst nightmare as Wayne Rooney is injured in defeat (against Bayern Munich in the Champions League)


Fortunately by all reports and slightly good news for the beleaguered England side that will play in the World Cup, Rooney just sprained it and should be back on the field in a month.

If still interested in Man U. vs. Chelsea, according to ESPN, it will be on ESPN2 live at 7:30 AM EDT, Saturday, April 3.
