Why would you say that? We've still got quite a bit of time left for him to heal at least play the second match I'd think.

At the time I posted that the prognosis was 10 weeks minimum.

supporting man utd and liverpool isnt really...the done thing, some might even call it glory supporting, although you no doubt have some wonderful reasoning that will make it totally valid im sure.

Well I only support Man Utd but if you're not English it's very easy to support rivals. You're not blinded by regional pride and the like.

The World Game said:
Socceroos goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer is in no doubt for the World Cup and could be back in action in a couple of weeks, his agent says.

Schwarzer was to undergo an operation on a broken cheekbone suffered in Middlesbrough's FA Cup semi-final loss to West Ham on the weekend.

The injury threw his June World Cup participation into doubt but his agent Barry Silkman said there was no chance of his being out that long and he could push for a berth in the UEFA Cup final on May 10.

"The worst-case scenario is he'll be back in training in two weeks," Silkman said.

"It's a very straightforward operation and the doctor says he can't see him being out of training any more than two weeks."

"If (Middlesbrough) get through to the UEFA Cup final he may still be able to make it."

Harry Kewell is also expected to be fit for the Cup despite suffering a groin injury on the weekend, a reminder of the injury that blighted his past two seasons.

A source close to Kewell said his premature departure from Liverpool's FA Cup semi-final win over Chelsea was "a precaution", saying it was "a minor strain" and that the Socceroos star will become just the fourth Australian to play in an FA Cup final.

There was more concern about Everton's Tim Cahill, who was to have scans on a knee injury sustained in the draw with Birmingham.

It's also the fact that I'm new to it all. Since I started watching, the games that have had the most visible friction between Man U and another side were against Arsenal and Chelsea, so when I think of "rivalry" I think of them. Liverpool not so much... although they've had their moments.

supporting two leading sides is just pathetic.

I do support two sides in Brentford and Newcastle but they play in different leagues and very rarley play each other.

Not sure it's smart of the CDMs to bring Campbell in like this after they've had 9 straight clean sheets in Europe (at least I think that was the stat), especially surprising considering he's an Englishman as well. Suppose he's due some clanger-free games, but still...

Who was the guy in some second division team that kicked the ball into his own face and it deflected into the goals, hence resulting in him scoring an own goal?

They showed a clip of that on the news. That was one of the funniest things I'd ever seen.

No other realistic options with Swiss Tony doing his knee. It's probably less of a gamble picking a centre-half who's not in the best of nick with a wealth of experience than a kid who's probably started less than half-a-dozen games.

I know the team that conceded that goal ended up winning 3-2 and it was against a north-east side, maybe Darlington or Carlisle (without looking). It was the first goal of the game, so this should help you track it down anyway.

Anyway how much money do these footballers get paid a week to kick conversions when in a good position?

As for the CDMs I didn't realise their player got injured - in that case they do have no choice.

Without looking at a map, presumably.

Villareal lacking the final ball so far, they should have created at least one very good chance by now. Other than that fairly predictable game, ridiculous dive count from the CDMs just incremented to 2.
