Swansea midfielder Joe Allen is out for between three and four weeks after tearing a thigh muscle.

The Wales Under-21 international was substituted midway through the second half of Swansea's 3-1 win over Doncaster last weekend.

Allen, 18, who only broke into the first team in December, joins key midfielders Ferrie Bodde and Darren Pratley on the sidelines.

Boss Roberto Martinez says he is not planning to bring in a replacement.

    He was the geezer who got booked at The Valley and then had a rush of blood 2 minutes later.
    And got sent off.
