Injuries

The one thing everyone doesn't want to see, your countries star player stay down after receiving a tackle.

At the moment, England fans are hoping that Gareth Barry recovers from injury in time for the World Cup, and we don't want to see Wayne Rooney injured either.

Also, Chelsea midfielder Michael Essien has been ruled out with an injury he picked up in training. So Ghana's hopes have already taken a knock.

So, discuss the injuries of the World Cup in here.

One of our main midfielders Tim Brown was injured in the Aussie warm-up game, ATM he's struggling to be fit for the tournamnet, I hope he does come right for our first game.

German midfielders Michael Ballack and Christian Traesch are out.

I noticed that Gerrard was hobbling slightly towards the end of todays match against Japan, hopefully it was something isn't too serious.

Nah.. He was just justifying his lack of goals

German midfielders Michael Ballack and Christian Traesch are out.

And now Westermann's out too. Add Rolfes and Adler to the list from before the probables were selected and that's a pretty crazy casualty list. Unlucky for the Germans, but their starting line-up looks pretty strong nevertheless.

Not really. Team looks fairly average without Ballack in it.

Rio's out.
