For the first time ever, I'm going to agree with Pete.
I can take Chelsea winning the championship with their win over us, but if you take Rooney out of the World Cup equation, I doubt we'll even progress through the group stages. Pair that with Owen being unhappy with his recovery, and we're doomed. I'm usually optimistic about these things, but I have to be realistic - Crouch and Bent starting? We don't have a hope!
The dream is in tatters for another couple of years.

Thinking about it, today has been one of the darkest days, football wise, I've experienced.
What with the Rooney injury, news about Owen's (failing?) recovery, United being stuffed by Chelsea, and them winning the championship with that win.
!
The beautiful game can be a bitter one at times.

You never know, maybe it is a blessing in disguise.
Rooney will get lots of rest between now and the world cup, and be fresh and ready to go for the first game, or keep him back untill the knockout stage.
He is a tough little guy.
Ok, that might be a load of rubbish, but lets keep thinking on the positive side!!!!

Sound like you are making excuses for England already, when we all know in reality they wouldn't win with Rooney.
They should start taking viagra now, because it's the only way they are going to get past a semi.

If we were relying on Rooney to win the World Cup, does that not mean we were on dodgy ground right from the beginning? One man doesn't make a team.
Mind, obviously we're shagged without Michael Owen.
