That Foot Again!

Turns out Wayne Rooney’s foot healed so quickly because it wasn’t the normal sort of metatarsal break: “Rooney’s break was at the base of the fourth metatarsal bone and under the surface of another small bone, called the lateral cuneiform bone. The fracture was located on the spongy cancellous bone at the base of the metatarsal and this heals three times quicker than the hard bone in the metatarsal shaft. Also, it was not a stress fracture, which take longer to heal.”
Well, if they’d've told me that at the outset I would’ve known the lad would rebound!
