Rooney A Doubt For Season Finale

A groin injury could keep Wayne Rooney out for the rest of the season, although Sir Alex Ferguson insists United's medical team will do all they can to get the striker fit for the last two games.

The 24-year-old sat out the Reds' 3-1 victory over Tottenham on Saturday after getting injured in training on Thursday. And the outlook does not look too good for the forward.

"It's difficult to say how long he'll be out," the boss told Sky Sports. "It might take two or three weeks.

"We'll try to get him back and Wayne will be desperate to play, of course. But we'll just have to wait and see."

As well as treating Rooney, the club's medical staff will also be monitoring the health of Patrice Evra and Nani who were both physically sick during the match.

"We had a bit of sickness with two or three players today," revealed Sir Alex.

"Patrice didn't feel too well yesterday, but felt okay to play. The heat maybe brought it on or it might have been something they ate or perhaps a bug is going around the place.

"They've got eight days to recover though so hopefully they will be okay."
