Last night Man United striker Wayne Rooney pulled out of the England squad to play Belarus after picking up a calf strain. Rooney played the whole 90 minutes for England in their 1-0 defeat to Ukraine and there were no signs of an injury then.

It was announced that Rooney picked up the injury during the loss and he will now return to Man United having been assessed by the medical staff.

England have already qualified for the World Cup so it isn’t a big blow for the country but it could be for United.

Hopefully Rooney will have recovered by this weekend when we take on Bolton. The last thing we need right now is him injured.
