Fergie faces dilemma with Rooney and Hernandez both set to miss Basel clash


Manchester United face a striker dilemma for Tuesday's Champions League encounter with Basel at Old Trafford with injured duo Wayne Rooney and Javier Hernandez to sit out.
The pair were notable absentees as United prepared for their upcoming Group C clash with defenders Nemanja Vidic (calf), Chris Smalling (groin) and Jonny Evans (ankle) also missing the training session at Carrington.

Mexican striker Hernandez was an early casualty in Saturday's 1-1 Barclays Premier League draw at Stoke when he was forced off following a collision with goalkeeper Asmir Begovic and defender Jonathan Woodgate.

Rooney, however, was missing altogether with a hamstring problem and manager Sir Alex Ferguson is unlikely to be able to call upon him before the international break next week making him a doubt for England's crunch Euro 2012 qualifier against Montenegro on October 7.

Ferguson confirmed on Monday that Rooney would miss the match with a hamstring injury and said that it was difficult to know when the England striker would be back in action.
Ferguson told a news conference at Old Trafford: 'He's not playing tomorrow. It's difficult to assess with hamstrings but we hope we have him back quickly. He did a bit of jogging this morning but that's all.'
Ferguson also said that Hernandez's dead leg would keep him out but that the Mexican should be back for the home match against Norwich on Saturday.
