I was watching game, it looked a shocker
He's not had the best of luck since leaving us really.
Hope its nothing too serious.
I hope it's not as serious as it obviously looked.

Albion wait on Gera scan
Posted on: Sat 26 Nov 2011
ZOLTAN Gera faces a scan in the coming days to discover the full extent of the knee injury he picked up in today's 3-1 defeat by Tottenham.
The midfielder played a key role in the Baggies' opener before being forced off in the 21st minute after turning awkwardly and damaging his left leg.
Roy Hodgson is now keeping his fingers crossed Gera avoids another spell on the sidelines, having only returned to first-team action three weeks ago after almost six months out with ankle problems.
"Zoltan will have a scan," said the Hawthorns boss.
"He has twisted his left knee.
"All we can do is keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best.
"We missed him enormously and to lose him for a spell would be very tough on him and very tough on us because he is looking very, very dangerous."
Hodgson has been impressed by the partnership Gera and Shane Long have forged in attack in the last two games.
He was delighted to see Long overcome the groin problem he picked up in training earlier this week and play 72 minutes.
And the head coach admits he will have to wrap up the four-goal striker in cotton wool in the build up to next Saturday's trip to QPR (ko 3pm).
"I think the quality of our attacking play has improved since Zoltan and Shane started this partnership," Hodgson added.
"Of course, Shane could only play 70 minutes because he's had a groin problem all week.
"He only started training on Friday so we did very well to get 70 minutes out of him.
"We were worried he wouldn't last that long.
"While those two were playing, I thought we looked very good.
"We have to take great care of Shane this week if he is going to be able to feature against QPR."
