Stoke midfielder Liam Lawrence is likely to miss Stoke's
next home fixture with Tottenham on the 19th after suffering a setback
as he tried to recovery from an ankle injury. Lawrence suffered the
injury at home by tripping over his Labrador last week, When speaking
with the press Liam expressed his concerns and discomforts the injury is
causing him.
"I've turned an ankle before and been out for just a couple of weeks,
but this one feels different to anything I've had before. We'll probably
give it a few more days' treatment to see if it improves, but if not
then I'll go for another scan to see if there's something else in there.
It seems to be taking longer to get right than these things should. I'm
usually a decent healer, but this is slow and it's killing me. I'm sick
of going to the gym every day, not being able to train properly and
missing the other lads with all their banter.''
Surely Liam, after falling over your dog its best you are missing the
banter!
Lawrence who previously played in the Premiership with Sunderland is
looking forward to the Tottenham game and hopes time is on his side and
he recovers for the big bottom of the table clash at the Britannia
Stadium."I desperately want to be there because it's such a massive,
massive game for us and I want to play my part. I've just got to get
fit, get back in the Stoke team and then make sure my form turns around
again so I can show people just what I can do, like I did last year and
the year before that. We are trying desperately for the Spurs game, but
we'll have to wait and see." |
