Oh, FYI, Wayne Rooney broke the fourth metatarsal on his right foot following a tackle during a match between his team, Manchester United, and Chelsea. Manchester United doctors say he will be off any kind of sports for about six weeks. If his recovery goes well. He also fractured his fifth metatarsal in 2004, during the Euro 2004 quarter-final match against Portugal - it took 10 weeks before he was able to play professional football again. Ledley King, another England team member who plays for Tottenham Hotspurs (Spurs) fractured his fourth metatarsal just before the 2006 WC too.

the below article's about David Beckham's 2nd Metatarsal injury before World Cup 2002.. =)

Total Commitment.. like me haha!

When recovery is put at a certain period like six weeks, does that mean the foot will be able to sustain the same pressure and forces as before the break? Is it likely that Beckham will suffer any psychological effects?

SK: I would hope not, and once the bone has healed there won't necessarily be a point of weakness there. It's likely to be a bit uncomfortable, even after the bone has healed, but he should be able to play through that.

CH: Gordon, did you notice any difference in Beckham in the second leg after the knock he picked up in the first match?

GF: I don't think so - I think he's a very committed player. You might think that some players are looking ahead to the World Cup and trying to avoid heavy tackles, but these guys are totally committed.

If anyone pulled out of any tackle their team-mates would give them stick and their manager would spot it as well. In general the players give their all once they're out there, and it's largely because they're so competitive that they get to the top.

CH: But players and athletes in general, must have some sort of psychological barrier to get over.

SK: I think once the injury has healed and they're out there on the pitch, their main concern is playing the game, and playing to win.
