Wayne Rooney seems to have picked up a nasty virus while on tour with Manchester United in Africa.
“I doubt we’ll get Rooney fit for the start of the season with the virus he’s had.” Sir Alex told Sky Sports
“It’s a virus he picked up in Nigeria and it’s not a nice one, but quite a few have had it.”
“It’s such a bad virus and he’s got to be training to be fit.”
Manchester United has been plagued with misfortune. Aside from Rooney, Cristiano is recovering from an ankle injury. Nani and Anderson will also be missing “I don’t know whether we will have a team ready. Nani is suspended, Anderson is in the Olympic Games.”

Maybe, just maybe, Sir Alex will see the importance of buying players! Who will play up top with Tevez? Who will play right wing? Who will give Ryan Giggs a break?
