Kenyon's frustration at knee injury

A challenge with Charlie Adam led to Kenyon’s substitution with what was later revealed to be a grade two tear of the medial collateral ligament.

The first six of those weeks will see him wearing a brace before spending the next six weeks getting himself fit enough for a return to action.
“It’s very frustrating from my point of view,” Kenyon said afterwards.

“I wanted to go back on but Farny wouldn’t let me because he’d felt something in my knee.
“When he told me it was 12 weeks out my heart sank because it didn’t feel that bad.
“Hopefully I can be back after Christmas, ready to stake my claim for a place in the team.”
