Rooney likely to be sidelined for more than a week


Sir Alex Ferguson has revealed that Wayne Rooney is likely to be sidelined for 'more than a week' after being forced to miss Manchester United's match against Stoke on Saturday.
The in-form striker was a notable omission from the visitors' line-up at the Britannia Stadium, but it was initially thought that he was only absent because of a minor hamstring problem.
Ferguson confirmed after the 1-1 draw that the injury was 'not serious', but indicated that Rooney could be set to sit out a couple more games.
United face Basel in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday before tackling Norwich in the Premier League at Old Trafford next Saturday.
