Blackburn’s Roque Santa Cruz has suffered what could be a recurrence of his pre-season Achilles injury in today’s game at West Ham and was duly subbed after 29 minutes.
The striker went down clutching his heel and was duly replaced by Derbyshire. The extent of the injury is not yet known and it did appear as though he attempted to play on which hopefully suggests a minor strain. I’ll bring you more details in my scout notes as we get details.
