Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson says Wayne Rooney could be out injured for a month after sustaining a deep gash to his right leg Saturday in his team's 3-2 win against Fulham.

Ferguson says ''He's got a bad one ... It looks as he'll be out for maybe four weeks''

The England striker is receiving hospital treatement for the wound after getting caught by Hugo Rodallega and leaving the pitch on a stretcher in injury time.
