Carrick injury fear

Tottenham are waiting to see if Michael Carrick faces an extended spell on the sidelines after twisting his ankle in training.

Carrick, yet to make his first-team debut since joining from West Ham, was ruled out of Sunday's goalless draw with Norwich because of a knee complaint.

He was back in training on Monday but picked up another injury.

The 23-year-old will today discover the result of his scan and physio Geoff Brown is not too optimistic.

He said: "Michael has been a bit unfortunate in that he has also suffered from a bit of tendonitis. He got back into training and rolled his ankle, has sustained a sprain and will be out for a period of time."
