Roque wants Nov comeback
Blackburn striker Roque Santa Cruz has said he hopes to return back from injury for the Premiership games with Liverpool and Man Utd in November. Roque will miss the games against Reading, Tottenham and Portsmouth as he recuperates.
"I've been forcing the injury in the last few weeks, playing with injections," said Santa Cruz in the Lancashire Evening Telegraph.
"I've reached a point where I had to decide if I should continue but run the risk of having to stop for two or three months, or if I should stop now and see if the injury gets better.
"I'm sad not to be there (with the national team).
"I don't like having to make a decision like this, but in the long term it means that I should be ready for games in November."
