Scott Parker is likely to be out of action until the end of the month after sustaining knee ligament damage against Arsenal last weekend.

The midfielder - who was making his league debut against the Gunners - limped off at half time after damaging the same knee which had kept him out of action until last weekend.

Initial fears were that the former Charlton man could be out of action for some considerable time, although those worries were allayed following a scan earlier this week.

Meanwhile Craig Bellamy has sought a second opinion on his troublesome groin injury which plagued him during the summer and continues to keep him sidelined.

"We don't think it is particularly serious but we have to get to the bottom of it," Alan Curbishley said.

"Since Craig's been with us he's been wearing different orthotics to help an old injury - and it has worked, but it has caused something else.

"He's got a groin strain, we don't think it is any more than that."

Bobby Zamora, who recently underwent a knee op is not due to return to first team action until the end of October.
