Southampton's Adam Lallana on crutches with his knee in a brace following injury against Reading
5:44pm Saturday 8th December 2012 in Sport
Saints captain Adam Lallana was on crutches, with his knee in a brace, following the 1-0 victory against Reading.
The midfielder was injured in the first-half when Royals midfielder Jay Tabb accidentally tumbled into him.
Lallana was forced off the pitch and was replaced by Gaston Ramirez.
Nigel Adkins revealed after the match that Lallana's knee had been immobilised and that he would be looked at again tomorrow.
“He’s picked up a knee injury,” Adkins confirmed. “As a precaution, as we always do, he’s in a brace and on crutches and we will assess him tomorrow and take him from there.”

being on crutches means nothing.

What an important result today.
We kept the faith even after missing many chances.
Good team performance.
What great hold up play by Rickie, then to slot the the ball through the players legs , to enable Nat Clyne to produce a good cross ball for Punch to slot the ball in.
Well done, big lift for the team and the support, who were great again today.

Hopefully the 2 week break will be enough to see him in place for the Mackems.

Rather than send a get well card to Adam; I'd like to send a plain red one to the ref for his disgraceful performance.
