David Moyes has stated it is 'getting repetitive' talking about Wayne Rooney after reiterating the Manchester United striker is not for sale and has also reacted to reports of interest in Thiago Alcantara.
Meanwhile, Moyes also confirmed that Rooney's hamstring injury will keep him out for "two to three weeks" and not a month as first thought. "We didn't expect it," he said. "We wouldn't have brought him if we had known. But once we had it checked, what would be the point in taking a risk? "We could have kept him and taken him to all the other places but he wouldn't have played the games. We thought for the benefit of the player, the best thing to do was get him back right away and let him get on with his rehabilitation. "We will keep his work up. With a hamstring injury you can do lots of work in the swimming pool and some work in the gym. "And when we return from this tour we still have the game in Stockholm, the Community Shield and Rio (Ferdinand)'s testimonial as well. "It is really important we get players fit for those games and Wayne should only be out for two or three weeks. "He was in really good shape. He came back in a good fighting weight."
