Concerns mount for McLeish

Mon, 14 Sep 10:44:57 2009

Birmingham manager Alex McLeish revealed he has more injury concerns ahead of his side`s next game against struggling Hull.

Blues slumped to a late 1-0 defeat at home to derby rivals Aston Villa on Sunday, and their misery was compounded by a string of fresh problems.

"We are really are strapped for players at the moment in terms of injuries and we had three or four limp off," McLeish said. "We'll wrap them in cotton wool this week and we'll see what we've got available next week.

"Franck Queudrue is struggling with his hamstring, James McFadden went off at half-time with a thigh muscle strain and Roger Johnson has got a gash in his shin.

"We would expect him to be okay but the other two could be doubts."
