Aston Villa midfielder Morgan Sanson is set to be sidelined for a month after injuring his hamstring against Chelsea in the week.
And, as to be expected, another injury blow has left plenty of Villa fans fuming.
Villa took to Twitter on Thursday evening to inform fans that Leon Bailey is set to be out until after the international break with a thigh strain.
Within their injury update on the club’s official website, manager Dean Smith also revealed that the French midfielder is set to be ruled out for four weeks.
The 27-year-old made his first start of the season for the first team at Stamford Bridge in the week but was replaced shortly before half-time.
Sanson has now made just 10 appearances for the club following his £14.22m move from Marseille in January.
Villa fans react
@villareport shared the news specifically on Sanson’s injury on Twitter on Thursday evening. This is what these Villa supporters had to say in reply, with many not happy.
“I WANT TO CRY.”
“MAKE IT STOP”
“I think that's his Villa career done, can see the likes of Ramsey and Carney getting the game time and overtaking him. Maybe a loan in Jan if he is fit and gone in the summer.”
“PAIN”
“yep another one. get rid of our physios and medical team before we're left nothing”
“Need a clear out already… Deadwood”
