Metatarsal

[textile]

_That_ right foot of David Beckham once had it broken, Wayne Rooney just recovered from its fractured, and Steven Gerrard broken his not long ago. This must be the most famous bone in the football world today. This is where it is:

We have 5 of them in each foot (at least I do :P). When it's broken, you obviously can't kick a ball. It's hard even to walk as you can't put too much weight on it. These bones are the longest in our foot so they broke most often.
