And there were no Russians involved, of course.

From Villa website.

Dunne is being assessed by a specialist after landing awkwardly in an aerial challenge at the end of the Sky Sports Sunday game.

Manager McLeish was waiting for a definite prognosis on the problem but confirmed it looked like being at least a month on the sidelines for the defensive giant.

Ciaran Clark, meanwhile, damaged his knee ligaments in training on Saturday and looks set to miss several weeks.

McLeish said: "Dunnie's not going to be back for the next game, that's for sure.

"I don't know at this moment exactly what's happened. He's definitely damaged his shoulder which is part of the bad luck we've been having recently.

"We have a specialist right now looking at him. We always have specialists in the crowd for different parts of the body.

"One of the guys was looking at him as I came up for the press conference.

"I don't know what's going to happen with the Big Un.

"Whether he is going to go tonight to hospital? I don't know what they do if it's dislocated.

"I can't give you an answer just now. I do believe he will be out for at least a month. That's serious enough.
