Today's Football News

I'm sure some of you forgot Frank Lampard was still playing, and never really noticed when you didn't see him on the Chelsea team sheet. Well the last time you would have seen him on your TV screens would have been on the 28th of August. Chelsea beat Stoke 2-0 that day. Since then, he has been struggling with a hernia problem.

 He was hoping to be fit for this Sunday against Sunderland, but in training he injured the abductor muscle in his leg. He is now expected to be out until December.

 In other news, Wayne Rooney is to return to Manchester on Sunday and has made an excellent recovery to his ankle injury. This will be his first time in England since he signed a new five year contract which will keep him at United until 2015.

 Speaking of contracts, Gabriel Agbonlahor has signed a four and a half year contract today which will keep him at Villa until 2015 also. Agbonlahor has been out since the the start of the season with a calf injury.

 Also, after he was sent off against Real Murcia on Wednesday, Mourinho has been given a two match ban. And that's today's football news.

I would love to hear any comments you may have.
