AndyJR 0 Posted October 31, 2008 Taken from official Burnley website.......Clarets'' Defensive Dilemma Posted on: Fri 31 Oct 2008Burnley''s defensive woes have deepened, with a number of players suffering from illness and injury.Full-back Christian Kalvenes, who had to be substituted against Reading with a leg injury, is unlikely to feature in Saturday''s game with Norwich, while skipper Steven Caldwell is struggling with a knock. Clarke Carlisle, who missed Tuesday''s game with a troublesome hamstring, is also doubtful, whilst several players including Michael Duff have been struck down by a virus, giving Coyle a few selection headaches ahead of the weekend. "Michael Duff still has the bug that led to him missing the game on Tuesday."As it is, a couple of the boys have picked that up now, so we have sent them home today and we will see what happens," said Coyle."There is no point in them being among the lads because it spreads like wildfire, so we have quarantined them off."Despite the current casualties, however, the gaffer is confident his squad will overcome these obstacles.He said: "We will monitor them all but whoever is asked to play will do their best, so I am quite relaxed about that." Not that I wish ill on anyone (well maybe Ipswich) but we do need a win!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
