Moyes ready to gamble on Rooney

David Moyes insists he is not putting Wayne Rooney’s World Cup hopes in jeopardy by playing him against Bayern Munich – but the Manchester United manager has refused to reveal the severity of the striker’s toe injury.

Rooney has travelled to Munich for United’s crucial Champions League quarter-final against Bayern despite fears over a toe injury that ruled him out of United’s 4-0 win at Newcastle on Saturday.
