Santos missed training with the rest of the squad this morning, and as Joe Royle told the club website, it's very much a major worry: "We have got Georges out there over the last couple of games but the groin injury is still bothering him and he is rated at less than 50/50 for the Burnley game,"
If however Georges doesn't make it, despite a number of defensive injuries, Royle insists the club do have adequate cover: "We have youngsters like Gerard Nash who can come in. Fabian Wilnis and Chris Bart-Williams can also do a job there so we have contingency plans but we are not ruling big Georges out yet."
