SAFC’s on loan defender, John Mensah has been injured again just one game in to his return to the club.
The Ghanaian tore his hamstring making a superbr lunging tackle against Birmingham at the weekend. A scan revealed a grade 2 tear which rules him out for 2-3 weeks.
The injury is another blow for Steve Bruce after Mensah was dogged with continuous injuries last term caused by a long term back problem.
It will be interesting to see whether Bruce plays Da Silva at centre back as a direct replacement against WBA on Saturday, or move Onuoha across and bring in a new recognised right back, such as Bardsley, Marcos Angeleri or even move Elmohamady back from the wing.
