"Fulham" club defender Jimmy Bullard will reportedly be out of action for several months following a knee injury suffered on Saturday. During the England Premier League 4th round match against Newcastle on Saturday, which Fulham won 2-1 in the final minutes, the "Sharks" captain Scott Parker played roughly against the player. Fulham head coach Chris Coleman says the defender suffered a suspected knee dislocation, but now it's not as bad as initially thought. "He could have been out for two, three months from the lineup, we don't know, but the main thing is that we know it's not very serious. However, of course, it's a huge loss for us," said the coach. When the player left Wigan in the summer, J.Bullard showed fantastic form and already scored two goals this season. The 27-year-old player was injured in the match against Newcastle. C. Coleman also revealed that Newcastle defender S. Parker visited their locker room after the first half to inquire about J.Bullard's condition. "During the halftime break, Scott came into our locker room and asked about J.Bullard's condition. We have a lot of respect for him for that. It wasn't his fault, it was a normal mistake. Jimmy planted his foot incorrectly and dislocated his knee. Luckily, the doctor responded quickly, fixed everything, and now he's doing fine. He went to the hospital and told us after the match that he doesn't think it's an injury that would keep him out for the whole season or something like that," said the coach.
